WWII at Sea

Back to HISTORICAL

Naval warfare in the Second World War involved several types of combat:

small-boat skirmishes, such as fighting E-boats in the English Channel, or in the Pacific, PT boats.
submarines vs. convoys, and escorts vs. submarines
gunnery duels, such as the battlewagon vs. battlewagon confrontations off Guadalcanal, or the hunt for the Bismarck
confrontations involving land-based or carrier-based aircraft, such as the Battle of Midway or the "Great Marianas Turkey Shoot."
