Download or read book War Diary of the Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet, May 1942 written by Usnavy and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a modified version of the original May, 1942, Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet War Diary. May, 1942 - May continues the format from April, with the daily "Narrative", "Daily Distribution of Operating Forces", "Current Movements of Naval Units", and "War Plans - Daily Summary". Readers of the previous volumes are aware that the CinCPac War Diary is not an in-depth chronical of battle, as, for instance, the minimal information about the actual Battle of the Coral Sea confirms. What the War Diary does give is a detailed list of the ships participating and how they were organized. Due to distance and limited communications, even this information is not always 100% up to date, or 100% accurate (LEXINGTON lingered under the Task Force 11 heading for five days after she was sunk on May 8; she, and Task Force 11, were not removed from the diary until May 13). NOTE: This document has been altered from the original for publishing and readability purposes. Individual redundant page headings have been deleted. Empty page space has been removed. Typos have been corrected and inconsistencies eliminated. Geographical misspellings have not been changed. Select words in all-uppercase have been replaced with conventional lower case. Other than the above revisions, this is the original CinCPac War Diary, as submitted to the Chief of Naval Operations. The War Diaries were compiled to chronicle the daily operations of the ships and commands of the U.S. Navy. This was done for contemporary analysis and as a historical record.

Download or read book War Diary of the Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet, June 1942 written by Usnavy and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-19 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a modified version of the June 1942 Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet War Diary. This month continues the format from May: the daily "Narrative", "Daily Distribution of Operating Forces", "Current Movements of Naval Units", and "War Plans - Daily Summary". The last week of June is a bit of a muddle, with sections missing or duplicated. Spruance took over as CinCPac Chief of Staff on June 23, so this might be a byproduct of the administrative change. Also at this time the daily intelligence reports are included in the War Diary, though again this is done in a somewhat random and haphazard manner. This document has been altered from the original for publishing and readability purposes. Individual redundant page headings have been deleted. Empty page space has been removed. Typos have been corrected and inconsistencies eliminated. Geographical misspellings have not been changed. Select words in all-uppercase have been replaced with conventional lower case.

Download or read book War Diary of the Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet, April 1942 written by Usnavy and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a modified version of the original April, 1942, Commander-in-Chief, United States Pacific Fleet War Diary. Beginning in April, Enclosures are no longer included in the CinCPac War Diary. All War Diaries are now submitted separately. Also in April CinCPac became an expanded command which encompassed all military forces in the Central, South, and North Pacific - this command was called Commander-in-Chief, Pacific Ocean Areas (CinC-POA). However at that time, the War Diary was still listed as that of CinCPac. One casualty of this change is the comprehensive "Summary of the Situation" outline format that had been in use, with minor changes, since January 1, 1942. It was replaced with an abbreviated 10-point outline form. While the previous Summary of the Situation and the current Daily Distribution of Operating Forces had at times been redundant, they had complemented each other. The new form is more streamlined (albeit less detailed), and makes the Daily Distribution of Operating Forces the War Diary's center-piece.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, America's fast carrier task forces, with their aircraft squadrons and powerful support warships, went on the offensive. Under orders from Fleet Admiral Ernest J. King, the newly appointed Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, as the Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Fleet, took the fight to the Japanese, using island raids to slow their advance in the Pacific. Beginning in February 1942, a series of task force raids led by the carriers USS Enterprise, USS Yorktown, USS Lexington and USS Hornet were launched, beginning in the Marshall Islands and Gilbert Islands. An attempted raid on Rabaul was followed by successful attacks on Wake Island and Marcus Island. The Lae-Salamaua Raid countered Japanese invasions on New Guinea. The most dramatic was the unorthodox Tokyo (Doolittle) Raid, where 16 carrier-launched B-25 medium bombers demonstrated that the Japanese mainland was open to U.S. air attacks. The raids had a limited effect on halting the Japanese advance but kept the enemy away from Hawaii, the U.S. West coast and the Panama Canal, and kept open lines of communications to Australia.

Book Synopsis Mastering the Art of Command by : Trent Hone
Download or read book Mastering the Art of Command written by Trent Hone and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mastering the Art of Command is a detailed examination of Admiral Chester W. Nimitz’s leadership during World War II. It describes how he used his talents to guide the Pacific Fleet following the attacks on Pearl Harbor, win crucial victories against the forces of Imperial Japan, and then seize the initiative in the Pacific. Once Nimitz’s forces held the initiative, they maintained it through an offensive campaign of unparalleled speed that overcame Japanese defenses and created the conditions for victory. As a command and operational history, Mastering the Art of Command explores how Nimitz used his leadership skills, command talents, and strategic acumen to achieve these decisive results. Hone recounts how Nimitz, as both Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Fleet (CINCPAC) and Commander-in-Chief of the Pacific Ocean Areas (CINCPOA), revised and adapted his organizational structure to capitalize on lessons and newly emerging information. Hone argues that Nimitz—because he served simultaneously as CINCPAC and CINCPOA—was able to couple tactical successes to strategic outcomes and more effectively plan and execute operations that brought victory at Midway, Guadalcanal, the Marshall Islands, the Philippines, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa. As a study of leadership, Mastering the Art of Command uses modern management theories, and builds upon the approach in his award-winning Learning War. Trent Hone explores the challenge of leadership in complex adaptive systems through Nimitz’s behavior and causes us to reassess the inevitability of Allied victory and the reasons for its ultimate accomplishment. A new narrative history of the Pacific war, this book demonstrates effective patterns for complexity-informed leadership by highlighting how Nimitz maintained coherence within his organization, established the conditions for his subordinates to succeed, and fostered collaborative sensemaking to identify and pursue options more rapidly. Nimitz’s “strategic artistry” is a pattern worthy of study and emulation, for today’s military officers, civilian leaders, and managers in large organizations.
Book Synopsis The Conquering Tide: War in the Pacific Islands, 1942-1944 (Vol. 2) (The Pacific War Trilogy) by : Ian W. Toll
Download or read book The Conquering Tide: War in the Pacific Islands, 1942-1944 (Vol. 2) (The Pacific War Trilogy) written by Ian W. Toll and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-09-21 with total page 635 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller "A beautiful blend of history and prose and proves again Mr. Toll’s mastery of the naval-war narrative." —Wall Street Journal This masterful history encompasses the heart of the Pacific War—the period between mid-1942 and mid-1944—when parallel Allied counteroffensives north and south of the equator washed over Japan's far-flung island empire like a "conquering tide," concluding with Japan's irreversible strategic defeat in the Marianas. It was the largest, bloodiest, most costly, most technically innovative and logistically complicated amphibious war in history, and it fostered bitter interservice rivalries, leaving wounds that even victory could not heal. Often overlooked, these are the years and fights that decided the Pacific War. Ian W. Toll's battle scenes—in the air, at sea, and in the jungles—are simply riveting. He also takes the reader into the wartime councils in Washington and Tokyo where politics and strategy often collided, and into the struggle to mobilize wartime production, which was the secret of Allied victory. Brilliantly researched, the narrative is propelled and colored by firsthand accounts—letters, diaries, debriefings, and memoirs—that are the raw material of the telling details, shrewd judgment, and penetrating insight of this magisterial history. This volume—continuing the "marvelously readable dramatic narrative" (San Francisco Chronicle) of Pacific Crucible—marks the second installment of the Pacific War Trilogy, which will stand as the first history of the entire Pacific War to be published in at least twenty-five years.
