Overview:
By June 7th, 1942, the Japanese Imperial Navy had been dealt a stunning defeat at the hands of an underdog U.S. Navy. But what if things had gone differently? At 1:00 AM on June 4th, the Japanese submarine I-158 surfaced on the east edge of Sand Island of the Midway Atoll. Lt. Commander Soshichi Kitamura had been tasked with landing two companies of Imperial Marines that had been handpicked from the Midway Occupation Force commanded by Colonel Kiyonao Ichiki. Led by Captain Minoru Ota, this strike force was to sneak onto the rear side of Sand Island and creep towards the western shore, where the US Marines had placed shore batteries. His orders were to await the dawn when Japanese planes would begin bombing the Midway Atoll. Under the cover of this attack, Ota was to quickly and decisively defeat the Marine garrison and seize the coastal guns intact.Attacker: Japanese (2nd Combined SNLF)
Defender: American (USMC) (6th USMC Defense Battalion)
