This is seen from the Japanese perspective. The video explains things based on Japanese Navy observation. Without providing information on what the American Navy was doing, Montemayor presented the battle picture that the Japanese visualized and the problems this picture posed for them. Based on what they were seeing, they had to make decisions.<\/p>\n<p>You could tell, without getting a description of what the American side was doing, that the US Navy knew how the Japanese Navy did things. They capitalized on Japanese Navy weaknesses. According to history.com, this battle took place from June 3-6, 1942. However, other articles have different start and end dates&#8230; Same general time frames that include June 4-6, 1942.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">The video is worth the watch.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Bd8_vO5zrjo\" width=\"500\" height=\"300\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>History.com has additional history in this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.history.com\/topics\/world-war-ii\/battle-of-midway\">article<\/a>.
