Battle of Midway
The stage was set for the most important sea battle of the war. The carrier task forces departed Hawaii late in May to rendezvous northeast of Midway at an appropriately named spot called “Point Luck.” They had a date with the Japanese Combined Fleet and history, 1,135 miles west of Hawaii on a tiny speck in the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean.
