Answer:

Island of Midway was established as a Naval base and remained prominent in the U.S. military due to its strategic location in the Pacific Ocean

Explanation:

Following World War II, the Island of Midway was established as a Naval base and remained prominent in the U.S. military due to its strategic location in the Pacific Ocean. By the late 1950's, the island became host to radar aircraft and crews that were a part of the Distant Early Warning (DEW) system.

The name Midway dates from the islands' formal annexation by the United States in 1867. ... In 1940 the U.S. Navy began work on an air and submarine base there. During World War II the atoll became an important strategic objective for the Japanese.

What was the most important way that the USA at the end of 1945 was different from the USA in 1939?
ycow [4]

Answer:

The USA were more so ideologically driven by 1945.

Explanation:

In 1939, the USA and USSR, alongside other powers (ie. Great Britain), were united against a common enemy: Adolf Hitler. This incentivised all countries to put their differences aside and unite against Hitler, in order to end the rule of one of the largest threats of the 20th century. Thus, in 1939, the USA were largely cooperative and cordial.

By 1945, once Hitler and the Nazis’ rule was over, albeit the USA attempted to keep strong ties with countries such as the USSR (seen with US President Roosevelt’s friendship with USSR leader Joseph Stalin), ultimately, USA’s next steps were becoming increasingly dependent on the USA’s ideological differences to that of the USSR, bearing in mind the USA were capitalist and the USSR were communist/ Marxist- Leninist. This is evidenced with Truman (Roosevelt’s successor as US President)’s approach to the USSR at the Potsdam conference from the 17th July- 2nd August 1945.

Hope this helps! :)
