During the Battle of Midway in June 1942, out of the approximately 3,000 Japanese sailors who were aboard the four aircraft carriers involved (Akagi, Kaga, Soryu, and Hiryu), around 1,000 survived the battle. The significant losses were due to the sinking of these carriers and the intense air attacks from American forces. The battle marked a crucial turning point in the Pacific Theater of World War II.
