Iwo, That small peice of Volcanic rock was only sapost to take a week or two at the most by plan. It battle did not end untill 36 days latter, over a MONTH, and a pile of dead to prove that the japanese were not going to leave untill they were all dead.

Okinawa, The south, (Where my grandfather on my mother's side fought at) was hell, Again they were not going to give up only die or win. Also the Japanese steped up their Kamakazi attacks on are ships. They were light before, now they were coming down on us hard.

Iwo Jima and Okinawa. The other two were naval engagements and showed no indications of whether Japan would surrender or keep fighting.

A) Midway? nope. Turning point of the Japanese expansion in WW2 and a massive naval military defeat but not something to determine the enemy's mind.
B) Coral Seas? Nope, tactical stalemate and strategic victory for allies but with minimal losses.
C & D? Yep, as they are both massive amphibious landings (with heavy sea and air battles) that occurred both heavy casualties on the attackers and heavier losses on the defenders & with known cases of Japanese civilians killing themselves rather than being captured.

Even sixty one years after the certainty, the question of no count if or no longer using the Atomic Bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki replaced into justified remains emotional and divisive. first of all the dying toll replaced into destructive. If later deaths from radiation brought on maximum cancers are secure some estimates of Atomic Bomb casualties are over 800,000. between those many civilianns have been killed and killed horribly, many clinging to life for days and weeks because of the fact the anguish of severe burns and radiation disease ravaged their bodies. on no account have lots of persons been killed in this way of short volume of time from using yet 2 weapons. in spite of the undeniable fact that, what replaced into the alternative? the main concervative estimates for the convensional invasion of Japan replaced into a million American ineffective, 3 million jap. the US necessary to wrap up the conflict in the pacific and turn their interest to the turning out to be Soviet threat. There are people who argue that Japan replaced into approximately to offer up, yet do no longer forget that we did no longer cause them to supply up by making use of dropping an atomic bomb on them... ...We made them supply up by making use of dropping 2 atomic bombs on them, because of the fact after the 1st they have been nevertheless unwilling to throw in the towel. It took the 2d bomb on Nagasaki to offer Emperor Hirohito the leverage against Tojo that he necessary to reserve him to offer up. additionally had Japan remained a divine appropriate colonial Empire it could have retarded their outstanding freemarket financial explosion after the conflict. Japan could have stagnated under the comparable drained autocratic equipment that embroiled the island in conflict because of the fact the invasion of Korea and Manchuria in the 1920's. rather, destruction replaced into centralized on Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki, on an identical time as something of the rustic, and extra importantly the rustic's infrastucture replaced into left intact. This permit Japan recover from the conflict extra immediately than her associates and take the preliminary financial income in the area which she has maintained ever in view that. i like Japan and harm only as much as every person for the soreness her people suffered in WWII, yet on the comparable time, have been it no longer for the atomic bomb, rightly or wrongly, the Japan of on the instant could be an particularly distinctive place. i do no longer understand that it could have been a extra appropriate place in any respect.

The guy above me beat me to it, Okinawa and Iwo were the correct answers, where kamikazes made their first appearance, or at least all-out attempt to use them, as well as the suicidal defence on the islands themselves.....
