None of the answers to date are in the North Pacific, they are either in Central/West Pacific, or the answer Tokyo is in Japan!
The battle of Attu is in the North Pacific, but it fought in May of 1943 at the same time as the battle of Midway. The battle for Okinawa ended in June of 1945, but it was invaded on April 1, but as stated above it is in the Western Pacific, not the north. The Phillipines were declared liberated as of July 5, March 16 the Iwo Jima campaign was over except for mopping up actions.

The Japanese island of Okinawa has finally fallen to the Americans after a long and bloody battle.
The island, situated 340 miles (550km) south of the Japanese mainland, will now provide the Americans with an invaluable air and naval base from which to launch a sustained and forceful attack on the mainland.
It is estimated more than 90,000 Japanese troops were killed in the 82-day conflict.
