Midway (The Battle of Midway)

[Machine Translation] [Universal Cinema Collection] Universal's first Blu-ray title! A war spectacle film depicting the entire story of the Battle of Midway, which decided the fate of the Pacific War! --June 5, 1942. On June 5, 1942, the curtain rose on the largest naval battle in history around Midway Island in the high Central Pacific. The Japanese side, hoping to hit the U.S. mainland at once in a short decisive battle, deployed the Allied Fleet Task Forces under the command of Isoroku Yamamoto. In contrast, the U.S. Pacific Fleet under the command of Admiral Nimitz was still reeling from the devastation of Pearl Harbor. However, the U.S. forces, outnumbered in numbers, succeeded in deciphering the Japanese codes, thanks to the efforts of their Chief of Air Staff, Colonel Garth, and detected the enemy's movements, quickly assembling a task force of three aircraft carriers at Midway...!
