After the U.S. took the Sandwich Islands during the Great War, they established a base on Midway, including a Y-range station. In the summer of 1941, the U.S. was invaded by the Confederate States. The Empire of Japan, which had faced the U.S. in the Great War and in the Pacific War of the early 1930s, once again went to war with the U.S. Both sides recognized the strategic importance of Midway to the security of the Sandwich Islands; if Japan could take Midway, it would have little trouble moving from island to island.
