Summary
| Description |
English: The Battle of the Coral Sea (May 4-8, 1942) saw American and Australian naval and air forces fight together to protect our shared values of freedom and democracy against a powerful adversary - Japan.
The battle was a turning point in World War II, marking the first strategic defeat of the Japanese Imperial Navy. But more than 600 men perished in the conflict. At a memorial service at Western Australia’s State War Memorial on May 7, 2019, we honored those who lost their lives in the battle. Our nations and the world will be forever grateful for their sacrifice. |
