Answer:
Without the transistor, you wouldn't for starters be able to have computers, let alone the internet. Transistors are found on microchips and without them there would be no modern electronics. Cell phones, cars, tvs, cameras, house hold appliances, anything with microchips in it has transistors, and without them they couldn't work. How important it is for electronic communication is seen in the idea that there wouldn't be cell phones or computers without them.
Actually, the Allies adapted the strategy of island hopping in WWII because it saved lives, time, effort, money, ammunition, food, ships, and everything else. In taking only key islands, the other islands would be cut off from the Japanese mainland and basically all supplies and equipment. Island hopping also allowed the US to quickly go through the places without spending much time liberating each one. It help end the war sooner, and the US were able to complete their objective much more quickly.
