The Battle of Midway Island was a sea and air battle that was decisive for both the United States and Japan in World War II. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and the United States was retreating in the Pacific Ocean, Japan made a plan to defeat the United States’ viable power and force the United States to make peace before the powerful industry of the United States would produce aircraft carriers and aircraft that Japan could not compare. A careful plan to attack Midway Island, an...

Tolstoy wrote about the battle of Bolkino, and later the National People's Congress can summarize the reasons for the victory and defeat of countless wars, and then the soldiers and generals in the war could not see through this eccentric battle.
The same is true for this war. No matter how good the US military’s early intelligence warfare is, all the Japanese military’s predictions are all wrong. The changes in future wars are still achieved by the irreversible fighting of the frontline...

It exemplifies the combination of planning, courage, error and pure chance by which great events are often decided
. The opening prologue of the movie "Battle of Midway".
On the train back to Beijing, I watched the "Battle of Midway Island", and I have a few experiences:
1. The victory of the US in the Battle of Midway Island. From the movie , there are mainly two points, except for the excellent work and play of the decoders. Small tricks (lied to claim...

Maybe God won't bless the Japanese devils. .
I think of the "Fifty-Six Yamamoto" I read in high school, and the person who lost the aircraft carrier of Chengye Aircraft Carrier. The first to recognize the decisive power of naval aviation, but did not carry it forward. Midway Island shot down 147 U.S. aircraft and only 42 were shot down, but the remaining 280 were blown up in the aircraft carrier. . The unloaded bomb was placed on the deck, and the three aircraft carriers were completely destroyed within 5 minutes, which was unbelievably...

As a war movie, the battle scene is the biggest failure
If you are a military enthusiast, don't watch it.
Since 90% of the battle scenes directly use historical data, this makes the battle process without any sense of substitution. The shots shot by the aircraft were completely separated from the shots hit, and there was no connection; the pilot reported that the enemy fleet was found on the horizon, and then gave a bird's eye view shot. EX me? couldn't stand it after seeing it, and skipped the battle. What's even more amazing is that
when...

Fortunately, I just rewatched "Tiger Tiger Tiger", and many scenes were moved from that film without moving. You are saving too much money. . . The plot of the intelligence officer's son marrying a Japanese girl shouldn't be used to make up the...

It's actually quite boring. It's better to listen to a military class. In the end, you don't know who killed who and...

The Battle of Midway occurred six months after the Pearl Harbor incident. The U.S. military sank four main Japanese ships at the expense of one aircraft carrier, which became a turning point in the Pacific battlefield and even World War II. The film is star-studded and is one of the large-scale war films released in the 1970s. From the perspectives of the United States and Japan, try to show the entire process of the battle as objectively and truthfully as possible. A lot of detail restoration...

Before watching the new version, I felt that the old version was less cinematic, like a trailer showing a history book. After watching the new version, I felt that the history was so wonderful that the new version didn't even have a performance, so it's not as good as the old version. On Henry Fonda's face, he really saw the shadow of his daughter's...

The United States won the battle of Midway Island by no means luck. It should be said that the Japanese were lucky to survive so many air strikes until the SBD sent three aircraft carriers to hell. If the Americans are lucky, the Army’s B17, B26, Marine Corps’ Avengers, or torpedo aircraft may cause losses to the mobile...
Admiral Nimitz: [to Captain Garth after getting a briefing on the Coral Sea operation] We can't trade them carrier for carrier, Matt.
Adm. Chester W. Nimitz: [Is informed Admiral Halsey's been hospitalized] Damn. You know how much Bill Halsey hates hospitals.
Capt. Matt Garth: Maybe it's not that serious, sir.
Adm. Chester W. Nimitz: If he's scheduled himself to go anywhere *near* one, it's not only damn serious, it's probably critical.
Cmdr. Joseph Rochefort: [Joins them] Admiral, I got some really bad news.
Adm. Chester W. Nimitz: Well, today's the day for it.
Cmdr. Joseph Rochefort: The Japanese have changed their JN-25 code, that's the one that's been giving us Yamamoto's plans.
Adm. Chester W. Nimitz: How long will it take for you to unravel their new system?
Cmdr. Joseph Rochefort: A month, maybe two.
Capt. Matt Garth: Sir, do you still want that fleet order issued?
Adm. Chester W. Nimitz: ...Yes. Target: Midway.
Capt. Aoki: Welcome aboard your flagship, Admiral.
Capt. Aoki: Thank you, Captain. Rear Admiral Kusaka will be my chief of staff, Captain Aoki.
[Kusaka and Aoki bow to one another]
Capt. Aoki: And where's Commander Genda?
Capt. Aoki: He's in sickbay, sir. Influenza.
Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo: When does the doctor expect him to recover?
Capt. Aoki: In two or three days, sir.
Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo: I don't like the idea of starting this operation without my best air commander.
Capt. Aoki: Sir, we have one other casualty as well. Commander Fuchida came down with appendicitis this morning.
Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo: Fuchida too? We'll need a replacement.
Capt. Aoki: Genda suggests a veteran torpedo pilot aboard the Hiryu, Lt. Tominaga.
Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo: If Genda says so, I would like to see Tominaga as soon as possible.
Capt. Aoki: Yes, sir.
[leaves]
Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo: Fuchida, the man who led the attack at Pearl Harbor, out. Genda, who planned it, both ill... very bad luck, Kusaka. Very bad luck.
Rear Admiral Ryunosuke Kusaka: Only an inconvenience, sir. We'll manage.
