The Battle of Midway (June 2, 1942)

Only one isolated atoll prevents an enemy invasion of Hawaii. Midway Island is where the Japanese fleet converges on a tiny American base with a massive strafing and bombing attack. The Japanese expect to wipe out American defenses and keep the U.S. out of the Pacific. But, because of advance intelligence, U.S. navy pilots are able to locate the Japanese carriers and destroy them in one of the most decisive Pacific battles of World War II.
