The Japanese advance in Burma and the Dutch East Indies, but they've reached the end of the Malayan Campaign- Singapore, which they have under siege. They now prepare for the final assault. The Allies are going on the offensive at sea, though, in the Marshalls-Gilberts Raids, while on land in the Soviet Union the Red Army launches another series of offensives against the Germans.

In a small way the U.S. did actually score a measure of revenge for the Pearl Harbor attacks back on December 22nd, though it wasn't known at the time. Captain Herbert C. Freuler and Lieutenant Carl R. Davidson had taken off from Wake Island in what was then last two remaining F4F Wildcats, recently patched up from previous air battles, intercepting a force of 33 B5N Kate bombers and 6 Zero fighters headed to bomb Wake as part of the Japanese invasion. Davidson was shot down and killed in the resulting dogfight but Freuler had managed to down two Japanese planes before his own plane had taken so much damage that he was forced to crash land on the beach. It was to be the last air battle for the pilots defending Wake Island, as they were now without any planes, and the remaining pilots reported for duty to fight as "infantrymen." Unbeknownst to Freuler one of the two planes he had shot down carried Noburu Kanai, the bombardier credited with striking the fatal blow to the USS Arizona on December 7th. Kanai was killed in action when his plane was shot down by Freuler.

Even concentration camp inmates who understood enough Russian to follow orders and were capable of marching were often recruited in the same way as the Red Army advanced west.

Good anecdote at the end there using the golf course Indy. The fact that the high society elites of colonial Singapore were still dancing waltz at Raffles Hotel even when the Japanese are right at the doorsteps of Fortress Singapore pretty much reflected how the local civilians were either somewhat apathetic or disconnected and still confident that the British would still be able to beat the Japanese off the island at this late stage of the campaign.

That's basically the Red Army as a whole from 1939-42. It would take until late-1942 before the Red Army was able to, with the aid of ever-increasing material advantage in the face of an increasingly desperate German supply situation, plan and execute competent counter-offensives that had practical, realistic objectives. It would take a long time for the Soviet military (in particular it's officer corps) to recover from it's virtual gutting in the wake of Stalin's purges, not to mention his direct interference via Stavka.

you made a small mistake when listing the losses of the american aircraft carriers. The flag used noting the american losses is the union jack, not the stars and stripes.

Maybe it was a false flag operation and the US Navy was flying under the White Ensign of the Royal Navy. However, the British Movietone narrator exposes this deception.

@@realmario979 Prisoners of war had some propaganda value for Chinese Communists and they worked on "turning" them for that reason - it would be seen also in the Korean War where some US, British and other POWs made propaganda broadcasts or signed the Stockholm Peace Petition.

My heart sank at 1.25 regarding the sheer waste that these guys had a life which was cut short at someone elses whim . I know, the German Holocaust was much more massive scale and I do feel angry about the needless loss of life involved in that situation but i think this hit me as I am an Aussie and we actually hear little of the Jap atrocities over here . '809 Australians surrender, 426 of them are bayonetted to death'. I feel humbled at the sacrifice of these men, actually everyone who was in effect murdered needlessly. in both wars.

Hello Indy! As a history nerd, I love this channel and the great war. But i would like to highlight a few events from 1940 to 1942. 1). The battle of Dakar (the failed anglo-Free French invasion of Senegal) was the first free French actions during the war along the battle of Gabon. 2.) The Bombing of Bangkok. When Thailand joined the war on Japan's side, the us rejected the thai declaration of war but did help undermine marshal phibun's regime with the Free thai movement as the British and the US did raid thailand. And finally 3). The channel dash raids in the english channel begin today. Love the channel and congrats on the engagement Indy!

@WorldWarTwo 3 года назад

I don't understand- are you pointing them out because you think we're not covering them? Because the channel dash and the Dakar battles were very much covered- the dash especially on our day by day instagram coverage. The Thailand bombing hasn't been specifically covered, though when I get the time to do a block about Thailand again it will be retroactively covered instead of just getting a single sentence here or there. You're the only person that's mentioned the Thailand bombing to me, interestingly enough. You'd think there'd be more. Glad you like the show- we need more history nerds.

Indy, since it is now 1942, are you going to do a special episode about the Dieppe Raid on August 19? If so, may I suggest you find a copy of David O'Keefe's "Dieppe Uncovered"? There was a great deal more secret stuff going on there than has previously been dreamed of. Enter Ian Fleming and the British special forces! And thousands of Canadians were fed like sheep to the wolf on the beaches.
