Commissioned set commemorating the epic Pacific sea battle, which was the first major ocean encounter in history where the opposing ships never saw each other.

Carrier airpower was the deciding factor, and came into its own in May 1942. The lesson was not lost on the Allied side. Midway, the turning point in the Pacific war six months after Pearl Harbor, where allied forces decidedly took the offensive and never lost it until the unconditional victory, was mere weeks away.
