The American FlagThe Pacific WarThe American Flag
    Welcome to our ThinkQuest entry. World War II stands as one of the defining moments of American, as well as world history.  However it is often the European War with Nazi Germany that draws the most substantial attention, despite the fact that the Pacific War initiated many concepts and controversies that  remain more relevant to today. For example, the dread of Nuclear war and the development of aircraft. Due to this, we hope to shed some light on the less disscussed  side of the war.
