The article discusses an archaeological survey of the lost warships during World War II's Battle of Midway in the Pacific. Topics include the loss of almost all of U.S. fighter planes in Oahu, Hawaii during Japan's surprise attack on the Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, why the Battle of Midway in 1942 was considered one of the most decisive naval battles in history and the challenge faced by the research team led by Ocean Exploration Trust in documenting the Midway ships in the Pacific Ocean.
