Explanation:
During the Battle of Midway, the U.S. was without one of her finest Carrier commanders,<u> Fleet Admiral </u><u>William Frederick Halsey </u><u>Jr.</u> because he was overstressed and suffering from Psoriasis .
William Halsey Jr.:
- Was one of 4 Fleet Admirals in U.S. history
- Spearheaded raids against the Japanese after the Battle of Pearl Harbor
- Led the Americans to victory in the Battle of Leyte Gulf
William Halsey was so angered by the Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor that he started a series of raids on Japanese held territory as well as the Japanese homeland.
After 6 months of doing this, he developed extreme stress and lost a lot of weight and developed the skin condition known as Psoriasis. With a heavy heart, Fleet Admiral Nimitz then ordered him to Hawaii because he was insisting on remaining in command.
As a result, he was not present during the Battle of Midway and the U.S. had to make due without a veteran like him.
We can therefore conclude that William Halsey did not participate in the Battle of Midway.
