3. 16. The Germans ran over its conquests in a series of lightning thrusts that broke down defenses before they could react, surprising them and terrorizing them until they surrendered. With the quote about the historian provides an excellent description of what German war strategy.? _________________________________ 17. (2 points) Despite attacks from German fighter and bomber planes, the Wehrmacht (German Army) never launched a full-scale attack on the beaches. Panzer tank crews awaited the order from Hitler but it never came. In his memoirs, Field Marshall Rundstadt, the German commander-in-chief in France during the 1940 campaign, called Hitler's failure to order a full-scale attack on the Allied his first fatal mistake of the war. That 338,000 soldiers were evacuated from the beaches would seem to uphold this view. What event is the historian describing?Why did Hitler not launch a full scale attack? ________________________________________________________________________ 18. (2 points) The gratitude of every home in our Island, in our Empire, and indeed throughout the world, except in the abodes of the guilty, goes out to the British airmen who, undaunted by odds, unwearied in their constant challenge and mortal danger, are turning the tide of the World War by their prowess and by their devotion. Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few. All hearts go out to the fighter pilots, whose brilliant actions we see with our own eyes day after day; but we must never forget that all the time, night after night, month after month, our bomber squadrons travel far into Germany, find their targets in the darkness by the highest navigational skill, aim their attacks, often under the heaviest fire, often with serious loss, with deliberate careful discrimination, and inflict shattering blows upon the whole of the technical and war-making structure of the Nazi power. For what event is Prime Minister Winston Churchill showing gratitude? ____________________________________________ What secret technology gave England the advantage?____________________________

5. 22. June 6, 1944, 160,000 Allied troops landed along a 50-mile stretch of a heavily-fortified coastline to fight Nazi Germany on the beaches of Normandy. General Dwight D. Eisenhower called the operation a crusade in which “we will accept nothing less than full victory.” More than 5,000 Ships and 13,000 aircraft supported the D-Day invasion, and by day’s end on June 6, the Allies gained a foot- hold in Normandy. The D- Day cost was high -more than 9,000 Allied Soldiers were killed or wounded -- but more than 100,000 Soldiers began the march across Europe. In what country did the invasion take place?_______________________________ "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.“- Winston Churchill Using the map correctly identify the key turning points of the war. (1942-> ) 23.24.25. 25 23 24

6. 26. (2 points) The Imperial Japanese Navy lost 50% of its Fleet Carriers (4 of 8), and about 30% of its experienced flight crews. Neither would have any replacements - they were gone for good. The US lost 25% of its current carrier force (1 of 4), and would receive bigger, better replacements in less than a year. In addition, the USN lost only about 5% of its flight crews, and they were quickly replaced (in less than a month). This was a turning point because the Japanese were weakened for good and the U.S. was able to hold off the Japanese and the American Navy would only get stronger. After the battle the Americans controlled the seas and would be able to go on the offensive. The above story is describing what important battle in the Pacific?______________________________ After the above battle what was the new American Strategy?__________________________________ 27. (5 points) Fully explain the American strategy of Island hopping. Provide a detailed account of how islands were taken and why some were ‘hopped” over. You may want to diagram the strategy. 28. (2 points) Okinawa became the bloodiest battle of the Pacific War. More than 100,000 Japanese died, a frightening number matched only by the tally of unfortunate Okinawan citizens who perished in the fighting. Army casualties of more than 4,600 dead and 18,000 wounded were almost equaled by 3,200 Marines dead and 13,700 wounded. Even the Navy, which avoided the horrendous ground combat, lost almost 5,000 dead and 4,900 wounded to kamikaze attacks. Ironically, though Okinawa was a victory for the United States, its extremely large toll shocked military strategists. If Okinawa produced such carnage, what might happen when American forces stepped onto Japanese home soil? What was the importance of Okinawa?_______________________________ Many historians believe that the vast carnage on Okinawa convinced Truman to make what important decisions?
