My grandfather was in the pacific during ww2 he was a "code breaker" in the Philippines. He remembers about everything that happened yet now he doesn't remember what he did a week ago. every time we come to visit him he's almost always wearing his veteran hat.

"When you go home, tell them of us, For your tomorrow We gave our today." Mine was in burma won the MC, died of alzimers, terrible.
My grandmother is the same. She's firmly in her 90's now and can tell you all about her childhood, about her kids, etc. I can even call her out of the blue on her landline and although I hear what sounds like a confused, "Hello?" she is able to identify that it's me when I say hi. Out of all those grandkids and great-grandkids, I find that to be pretty impressive. Heck, if it weren't for Caller ID (which she doesn't have), I'd scarcely be able to identify people. But yeah, she has no idea what day of the week it is, what she had for breakfast, etc. Also, she killed 9 men on Okinawa. No, not during the war. Summer, 1994. Something just got in to her, I guess.
My grandfather also fought in WW2 in the Philippines as a combat engineer. He refused to talk about anything about his experiences there till the day he died. I would have loved to hear his war stories and what he went through.
@@junkiexl86 Same here... likely to do with the bomb testing out in the atolls
We were really blessed with good fortune to have had the leaders we had in the US Navy. They were fantastically talented. At Midway there was a lot of good luck on our side but without the leadership that was there we had it would have been a much different story altogether. The bravery and sacrifices of our pilots is unbelievable. The elite of the best generation.
There were plenty of poor senior-level leaders who became evident during the early Pacific campaign. Too many! Mark Micher’s flight to nowhere comes to mind even at Midway. Savo Island is not far off.
More importantly we were blessed with massive industrial success and manpower. We could have lost more battles and still won.
Luck favors the prepared mind!
I’m glad to hear a bunch of Aussie’s in this Documentary. My grandfather was a sailor on USS Selfridge DD-357 at Pearl Harbor when it was attacked Dec 7th 1941. They then went to Sydney where they spent a few months waiting for orders. He met my grandmother there. Then left and fought in the aforementioned battles. Came back in 44’ to marry her then went back fighting.
Your grandfather was a hero! The Aussies were essentially on their own until Coral Sea and fought bravely to slow the Japanese advance. WWII really forged a great maritime partnerships between our nations that, as a former U.S. Navy Sailor, I was proud to be a part of during several joint operations and exercises.
I’m thrilled to have found this excellent Australian WWII series, because the US owed their military a huge debt of gratitude for their support during the battles of the Pacific. My father-a US Marine-fought in several island battles including Saipan and Iwo Jima, but his base was in Hawaii so he never made it to Australia. My interest started there 35 years ago, but there weren’t many books written about the Pacific Theater and because of that, few documentaries were made except a few of the sea battles. This is no longer the case, thankfully! If only other Commonwealth countries would tell their stories about the critical assistance they gave all over the world, I’d be even happier!
This Australian series is so excellent, and fills a much needed gap in the story of the Commonwealth forces in WWII, and especially everywhere in the Pacific where the Australians provided critical assistance along with New Zealand and India. The Pacific War has been grossly underrepresented in terms of books and documentaries compared to the historical coverage of the European conflict, but in the past 10-15 years slow progress has been made toward redressing this imbalance, thank goodness!
Watching this WW2 Docs is like trying to eat just one potato Chip or 5 ,cant have one, have to watch them all.
But when you open a bag of Sea Salt chips, you don't expect to see BBQ.
I never knew the Russians and Germans had such a big role in the Pacific War.
You took the words I was going to use.
The title is wrong. Most of this is about fighting on the eastern front.
Reminds me of the two captured soldiers in Normandy who spoke a language no one knew. A bright fellow got them to the British Museum with tapes of most languages. Jackpot. They were tibetan yak herders who wandered into Soviet territory. The two ended up on the Eastern fron, were captured by the Germans and pressed into German uniforms to serve in Normandy. Talk about world war!
Russia did nothing, ZERO divided Equally until the last 9 weeks..
The Japanese navy went to battle against the Russian navy before war ww2 was official. World conflict is constant...always out of ego and greed; it started thousands of years before the birth of Jesus. Millions of lives lost and for what? We at peace on this planet? God left us to our own devices to be further dissapointed I think. (Just my opinion). Im a retired Soldier...I deserve to share my opinion. Make love, not war!
You learn something every day. Now I know that Antwerp is in the Pacific.
Antwerp is in Belgium. but there's also Antwerp in australia
THE TITLE SAYS BATTLES WITH JAPAN, IT DOESN'T SAY BATTLES BETWEEN GERMANY AND RUSSIA

@@alrariffcolumbres6265 It's obvious the guy was making a joke
@@2147B Some joke,,,,,,,,,,,,,What's funny about it?
Many thanks for providing informative content!
Mislabeled video for sure but still a good watch. How Germany and Japan thought they could defeat the Allies is still a mystery to me. As Yamamoto was famously quoted for saying after failing to catch the Pacific carriers at Pearl Harbor, "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."
You have to look at the events of the time. The Germans guessed that the British and French would be their biggest obstacle because of how things were during the first world war and how the Soviet Army had blundered in Finland taking on massive casualties both in manpower and economically in a war they should have won relatively easily. (The Soviets had a massive manpower and equipment advantage) so when the Germans took mainland Europe they weren't really worried about the Russians so much after all they had lost much of their officer corps in purges and their combat record was mediocre at best. Now onto Japan. The Japanese had finally began to achieve their centuries long goal of taking China and its resources, they must have felt pretty unstoppable and they had a modern navy and Army. They hoped that they could have a decisive victory at Pearl Harbor and later a decive annihilation victory at sea (Battle of Midway) to knock the American Navy out of the war after all at that time the Japanese and United States knew that whoever controlled the Ocean would be safer from large scale attacks. Things spiraled out of control when the Germans failed in taking Moscow and the Japanese failed in stopping the US fleet at the Battle of Midway (edited for clarification)
That quote itself is fake but the sentiment or thought by him is real. That quote only comes up in the movie "Tora! Tora! Tora!" No historical sources were presented by the film makers. Still a good quote though, but still fiction.
well allies won by luck....americans didn`t want to go into war but rosevelt pursoded the nation..... there was in congress more people not to go into war than yes... Brits almost surrendered, if USa didn`t came into war.... It was all political....
I have a book from the British memorial museum that is older than Tora Tora and it has thisnqoute, so what's up with that?
That might have been a misquote or a fabrication of the scriptwriter's from the movie TORA TORA TORA. at least that's what History Buffs said in their tora tora tora review
Absolutely my favorite battle of the Pacific War.... It was a miraculous victory, in truth. So much luck and timing involved. If you wrote a book with this story, it would be unbelievable, had it not actually happened. Obtaining intelligence through code breaking of 10-20% of the Japanese code; the Yorktown putting back to sea after only 2 days of repair; a totally inexperienced carrier commander in Raymond Spruance; the failure of Japanese reconnaissance flights; failed attack after failed attack that sacrificed men and planes to get the carrier air protection down on the deck; the luck of the Enterprise planes sighting the Japanese carriers at all by following the wake of Japanese ship that had stayed behind to try to sink an American submarine; the Japanese attacking the Yorktown twice instead of going after another carrier.... It just goes on and on. 5 minutes that changed the war. Yamamoto knew he had to knock the US out before its manufacturing advantage took over; he failed.
It wasn't Yamamotos day!
@@charlestonbrown148 You could say that again.... And yet, a few minutes here or there, and the Japanese could have won a great victory.
@@tommonk7651 yes the spoils of war turned the Pacific back to the US, Japan had no chance didn't press the advantage at Pearl and big, they missed the carriers!!! Could've attacked the West coast but we be speaking Japanese now, lol
@@charlestonbrown148 To be fair it was Nagumo in charge of the Carrier force and not Yamamoto. It sort of paints the Japanese as incompetent losing so heavily to a very inexperienced US Fleet. However in fairness it is largely down to the Japanese doctine of all out attack. When you over extend and throw haymakers you leave yourself vunerable.
@@reecedrystek2992 they lost so yes history is always told by the victors
TIMELINE! You’ve done it again; another great doc. Keep on!!!!
My father served in WWII he was station in Berlin, Germany im so happy he made it home I luv listen to his stories it was really amazing thank god we won
Nicely compiled documentary Thanks.👍💯
Those men that died. God bless you!
How can u bless a dead person
Because God is the ultimate witness to everything we do. Good or bad. Man cannot judge who you truly are only God can do that. I pray he will have mercy on all of us.
excellent series-doco! thanks!
Please continue this good work.. It was very informative and with great visuals. I wish to see more German tank battle videos.
I'm obsessed with these war documentaries, and there's plenty to go around
Hey timeline- pandemic era comment. Thanks for posting tons of these great docs free on KZhead, it helps a lot of us with anxiety. The quality of the content on this channel is kind of nuts.
There are incorrect parts in here and the title says 'outsmarted'. Nothing to do with out smarting. Check out Montemayor for an incredible piece of work on this battle.
Title: Key Battles of The Pacific Theatre Video: Now lets talk about the eastern front...
Bruh
@@richardlahan7068 OK, and what does this have to do with the op's comment?
Constant theme with this channel 🙃
If your not talking about Guadalcanal your not talking about key battles in the pacific.
RIght? Half this thing is Eastern front stuff. lol. What gives?
Very interesting!!!! Thank you
Liked even before watching the video... 👌
Saw an interview with "Dusty" Kleiss.Credited with hitting two of the carriers at Midway.Real down to earth guy.RIP Dusty.
Fascinating documentary!... I served in the US Navy as an "ABF" (Aviation Boatswain's Mate Fuels) and a Diver in "EOD" (Explosive Ordnance Demolition).. during the Vietnam War. I'm fortunate to have come back home in one piece. Amen to those that have and still are serving in the US Military! 💪✌️💗✝️🇺🇸😎
Interesting, this tied a few battles I knew fairly well together that I didn't know we're connected, but each one could take up hours each to tell their stories properly.
I loved this, very well explained and illustrated.
Good, informative video - thanks for posting.......
Absolutely love this kind of documentary! Naval battles are my favourite, as I played the game from a young age!
What game tho?
@@Helpme540 I think cod WAW because there’s actually this battles
@@raulayala6251 as far as naval battle games, there is Battlestations Midway. You can take control of aircraft carriers and battleships and stuff. The aircraft carriers send out waves of planes at the enemy ships. It's pretty cool.
@@raulayala6251 I haven't played WaW in a LONGGG time lol.
7:15 Actually, the Japanese did spot the American carrier TF first, but the Japanese scout misidentified the TF composition, and Nagumo wasn't expecting a surprise attack so didn't follow up on the sighting report. Figured it was just an auxiliary force heading out to the Aleutian Islands where a decoy attack was taking place.
The two actors playing out the strategy were hilarious in their smug looks 😂 It does help visualise the move...
"You sunk my battleship!"
Save on the actors, add $ on the graphics
Those clowns with their weird British looks can be deleted
Another informative video - great for research guys, well done! Unusual content for a Pacific War docu, but still well presented. Good work, Timeline.
Not actually well researched. Until now, no one had ever claimed that the Akagi was hit before the Kaga. The reason why this can't be correct is one of biggest stories of the battle.
I had a great uncle who fought in Burma. He was in the Rhodesian African Rifles
More needs to be said about the lesser known units in this conflict.
Mike-Wayne Django II; My Granddad was killed in action in Burma in 1945.Prior to Burma he served in the LRDG with Rhodesian soldiers in North Africa. I served with two ex-Rhodesian Army soldiers; one ex-RLI and the other ex-Selous Scouts. Both were exemplary soldiers.
I'm from Burma and I thank your Grandfather.
Love this series, and it is wonderful enough to forgo the bait and switch.
A few wks ago some u-tubers told me I was wrong when I made the statement that Canadians took the port of Antwerp.They said very boldly that British troops took the port.Whos your daddy now?This is the best video series on WW2 that I have ever saw,period!
Brits say they won the war and say "don't mention the war" around Germans, like they did anything in the war. Well done getting it right about the Canadians
Canadians proved themselves to be damn good troops.
We thank you for your service 🇺🇸❤️😁
Key battles with Japan? Over half the video is about Germany and Russia.
Indeed ... and not only in this movie ... Most of the "timeline"-movies shown on KZhead are "messed-up" like this.
British WWII history has a heavy bias towards the European theatre, because they performed much better in Europe compared to the Pacific, it's also why many Brits undervalue America's contributions to victory in that war.
Great Presentation... Thanks for Sharing
The recapture of the Corregidor island 🏝️ , Raid of Cabanatuan And the battle of Manila
During the war my grandfather was stationed at a base in the Phillipines where he would give planes the final go ahead to embark on their mission after inspecting their bombs to make sure they were loaded properly.
The fact that everything was video recorded clear back then is incredible.
Spectacular historic footage, as usual!
Didn't the airborne units hold Bastogne till Patton got there. Impressive as it was for Patton to turn his forces it astounds me that Bastogne was held even after being surrounded. Hats off to the greatest generation. It astounds me the complaints I hear daily self included.
The Pacific miniseries,a must watch.
Stalin didn't stop at Warsaw "to gather his strength", he -- personally -- gave the order to stop so that the Polish Home Army would be destroyed by the Germans and that he could could then impose his own rule on Poland with minimum disruption or resistance that could have been ordered by Beneš from London at a later date. It also weakened and tired out the German forces, which was an additional bonus. But no: there was no reason for the overwhelmingly superior forces of the Red Army to "rest". That simply isn't the case. He just preferred the Germans to do his dirty work for him.
@Alex WHey. .. America here.. 1939 was the invasion of Poland ... 1939... America did not stab any body in the back...how dare you... We didn't want to enter WW1 either...we didn't want to enter WW2... Before Pearl Harbor we started a lend lease program with England to make it legal to support the War effort...Dec7 is the reason America entered WW2... everyone knows that...and you can't say that America knew it was the start of WW2' when Germany invaded Poland... Any of you even know why America entered WW1...I do...had to do with Mexico..... THAT'S RIGHT. Mexico....hmmmmmmmmm what could it if been..
Pacific Theater ring a bell 🔔🔔🔔
@Khuaikhema Hnamte your good...🤔
@Khuaikhema Hnamte I clearly see your point...I misunderstood West...I apologize your correct...I'll shut up ...ummm America joined WWI Because British Intelligence intercept...Germany was trying to Allie with Mexico and told Mexico that They Would give back Texas New Mexico and Arizona back to Mexico if Mexico Would help Germany defeat the US... I'm from California...excuse me ..🖐️
Yeah, we stabbed the Polish in the back because we didn't declare war on the Soviets as well as the Germans. Get real! But tbf, you have a point, it's not like the Soviets were any better than the Nazis. So maybe a good nuking of Moscow in the late 40s would have been sensible.

The Coral Sea did not rule out the use of Zuilkaku at Midway as stated in the video. It did rule out the use of Shokaku which was heavily damaged,. The Zuikaku air squadrons were heavily reduced, but not the ship. Yamamoto following Japanese tradition decided not to replace the air squadrons. Nimitz in contrast went all our to get the heavily damaged Yorktown into the fight.
Hacksaw ridge is like pretty much part of the last battle of the pacific. The war was over pretty much, just waiting for the atomic bombs and firebombings of Japan to end the war.
The Coral Sea did not rule ' Shōkaku' and 'Zuikaku' out of the Midway battle as stated in this video. It did rule out Shōkaku which was heavily damaged, but Zoikaku was not damaged. Its air squadrons were heavily reduced, but not the ship. Yamamoto following Japanese tradition decided not to replace the air squadrons. Nimitz in contrast went all our to get the damaged 'Yorktown' into the fight. This and not transferring smaller carriers to Kito Butai was the difference in the battle.
Yeah Im not even gonna watch when the thing says 'outsmarted'.
@@eyebelieve3 But it is true. Yamamoto violated the principal axiom of warfare--the concentration of force. The American in contrast executed that principle. Despite the massive Japanese force, the Americans at the point of the spear were had a greater force eater fierce measured in numbers of aircraft.,
It may have been the difference, we can't be sure. Certainly not moving over some of the Shokaku's air group in order to get Zuikaku involved was foolish. At minimum bring Zuikaku into the main body and move Zuiho into the strike group.
@@kurtwpg Absolutely. A good part of the effectiveness of Japan was massing carrier strength into one powerful group. This was absolutely vital when the Americans had a credible carrier force and the battle was within range of an American airbase. Especially interesting is that Tominagua's strike group did not bomb the Midway runways.
@@kurtwpg Why should the Japanese do that when they refused to believe American carriers would engage them until after they captured Midway ? Read about their War Games, which forbade scenarios where American carriers awaited the Kito Butai.
my first time learning Germany and Russia fought in the Pacific
“I have outsmarted your outsmarting!” 😎
That guy at the very end just giving out shots he's a champ.
every time I see those Soviet soldiers I can't stop my heart of beating for them , the soviet people suffered so much ...they literally lost everything and yet they fought on ,trapped between a monster evil and a puppet master they gave their blood 'till the last drop .
Not like they had any choice with Stalin
in soviet under staling it took more courage to retreat than to engage!
Thank you
Seems everyone is getting some proper history lessons. Sad the education system has let these fine men down. Never forget
Yea it is sad. But then again - most Americans then had no idea where Hawaii nor Wake Island was. Gotta cut today's people some slack. Just a little bit~.
I thought some of the background music used during the "Midway" sequence sounded familiar, in the Battlestar Galactica reboot, (2004-2008). It was used throughout the 4 seasons of the series, mostly during episode wrap-ups & episode recaps. Yeah, I know it probably seems a bit stupid to be mentioning it, but certain soundtracks from really good shows has a way of staying with you.... Personally, I've really been enjoying the "Great Battles, Won & Lost" series, although I normally enjoy documentaries of battles of WWII in more depth, I've found that you still get a good sense of each engagement in these Reader's Digest versions........
Since we're on the subject the introduction music of a lot of these videos is the intro track for the "darkly Venus aversa" álbum from cradle of filth.
That Soldier's face on the cover of this video says it all. Uncle Le😎
nice documentary
The look on the Marines face on this thumbnail says it all. Was also the cover of Ken Burns the War.
My grandpa was in France during the bulge. He was taking a higher up to a meeting and passed his brother, who was marching to the front. when he dropped of the higher up my grandpa asked permission to see his brother and was given it. by the time my grandpa got to the front line his brother was already dead. I don't know what unit my great uncle was in but he is buried in Belgium.
We all in our Western world and all around the globe must remember this and understand it least we do not see what is up against us now
Well done docu 👍 and lets hope for peace now 🇨🇦
I was too young to serve but Respect
The Japanese timetable for the conquest of the Philippines in 1942 was 28 days! With the Battle of Bataan and Corregidor, it took them Four (4) months!
They were not working to a time table..they were working to a stategy - isolate the USA from Australia so the major thrust against them would be needed from the west coast of the USA..their hope was that domestic USA would cave in if this happened. It didnt happen ...but it could have....a time line in war is never definite and I defy you to provide any genuine references for what you say. As to Battan or Corregidore? Have you been there? I have...and the history is a bit more interesting that u think~

Great video, even if the title is a little misleading...
My grandfather fought in Burma he was in 10th Gurkha Rifles British army
My Grandfather fought alongside Gurkha soldiers. His unit was the 2nd Buffs and he went to Burma after fighting in France, North Africa, Syria and then Burma. He was killed in action on 02/02/45. His letters are full of admiration for the Gurkhas. Ayo Gorkhali!!!

The documentary is great, but those dudes on the map, making faces at each other, is just lol
Is there any way I could get more footage of 2 men moving Army/Navy figurines around on a Snooker table? What I really want is footage of 2 men playing the classic Milton Bradley game "Battleship", on a fine antique maple coffee table, but I realize this is a big ask. Just the thought of being able to witness the moment when the one player screams at the other, "You sank my Battleship" gives me chicken skin running all through my loins.
Hehe ,👉
Those piecemeal attacks, though ineffective on their own, kept the Japanese on their heels the entire time at Midway until the Cavalry arrived and that was key. God Bless those young men in those planes that gave the ultimate sacrifice in order to keep the Japanese fleet off balance. Americans were seen as weak and lacking courage by the Japanese at first, but the Battle of Midway proved our resolve in this war.
My grandfather was on a support ship around the enterprise
The US Naval Institute has a great video on KZhead analyzing he Battle of Midway
The defeat of Japan became inevitable on December 7, 1941. They had no way to compete with a fully provoked USA. The only question was how long Japan could hold out before they were destroyed.
About 4 years.

This series is good except for the strange looks the two actors give each other across the table. I appreciate the map because it helps me visualize the location and other things but the odd looks like they are playing the kids card game “go fish” is strange.
Yeah if they are supposed to represent opposing generals at least make them put on the uniforms so we can get an actual representation of their uniforms. Cool for edification and is more cinematic. If they are giving respect by not donning the uniform they have not fought in, I suppose I understand that.
