Few events have ever shaken a country in the way that the Japanese
attack on Pearl Harbor affected the United States. The Japanese
forces then continued to overwhelm the Allies, attacking Malaya
with its fortress of Singapore, and taking resource-rich islands in
the Pacific in their own blitzkrieg offensive. Allied losses in
these early months after America's entry into the war were great,
and among the most devastating were those suffered during the Java
Sea Campaign, where a small group of Americans, British, Dutch, and
Australians were isolated in the Far East - directly in the path of
the Japanese onslaught. It would be the first major sea battle of
World War II in the Pacific.
