Sixty five years ago today,June 4,1942 we won a battle that was in some estimates the greatist we fought in World War Two.The battle was fought in the Pacific north of Midway Island. After it was over the Japanese heavy aircraft carrier force was mortally wounded with the loss of four heavy attack carriers while we lost one of our three - the Yorktown. We recovered many of our air crews but the Japanese recovered none.
Why bring this up - it took years for the full extent of what happened to sink in.Today we aren't looking at what is happening with an historical perspectice no one seems to sense we are in a political paradigm shift that like Midway is a victory.
