This video is about how Japanese troops occupied two islands in the Aleutians chain off Alaska in 1942, prompting fears they could be used as bases to attack the U.S. West Coast. The U.S. and Canada responded and the Japanese were ultimately ejected. Never heard of it? You're not alone. It was called "The Forgotten Battle." U.S. Air Force veteran and Museum docent Don Miles fills you in and answers questions from the audience. Pilot Ian Wayman describes the Museum's PBY Catalina patrol bomber, a type that played several roles in the Aleutians campaign. You'll see the PBY start up, taxi out, take off, and fly!
