Answer:
The battle of the Atlantic was the naval warfare in the Atlantic Ocean between the German Kriegsmarine and the Allies' navies. The German Kriegsmarine had two categories: the Unterseefloat, which contained U-Boats (a type of German submarine), and the HochSeeFleet which contained the Capital ships, cruisers, and destroyers. The U-Boats were the main danger, as many Allied convoys had no escorts at the beginning of the war. The HochSeeFleet lost its pride, the Bismarck, on its maiden voyage, and never saw the success the Submarines did. Eventually, the battle of the Atlantic was won because of Germany's neglection of the navy, focusing all of it's resources to the land wars. Special sonar technology eventually made U-Boats much less scary, as they could be detected.
Bold is why the Allies won.
The Battle of Midway gave the allies an advantage in the pacific. This is because the US forces there destroyed four aircraft carriers, causing major damage to Japanese naval air forces to the point they couldn’t replace them in time before the war ended.
Here are why the other answers are incorrect:
The island of Midway was actually under US control before the attack, and was too far from Japan for attacks to be held there. However, it was a crucial airbase that had to be kept for control of the local region.
The Japanese took a few more years to surrender, but some historians consider this battle to be a turning point in the pacific campaign.
The majority of carriers were not destroyed at midway, but as stated above, the destruction of four proved to be a crucial victory, since the Japanese couldn’t replace them in a timely manner.
Hope this helps!
I’m pretty sure the answer would be 60%
