Midway, as the name suggested, sat in between Hawaii and Japan making it an important military point. Midway allowed whoever held the island to have a naval advantage in attacking the other side. The US wanted it to launch an attack on Japan and Japan wanted the island to set up against the US.
The answer is B: U.S.S. Maine.
Pearl Harbor occurred in 1941, when Japan bombed it and brought the US into WW2, and the U.S.S. Arizona was one of the battleships destroyed during the attack. Also, San Juan Hill was the battle during the US-Spanish War then-commander Teddy Roosevelt fought in.
