As part of their plan to expand their empire in the Pacific
farther eastward, the Japanese initiated the Midway-Aleutian
operations by conducting a carrier strike against the
U.S. Navy base at Dutch Harbor as a diversion to the main
offensive against Midway Island. The raids, carried out
3-4 June from the aircraft carriers Juyno and Ryujo,
were the only major air attacks conducted against
North American soil during World War II. The attacks
by Vals and Kates and Zero fighters inflicted minimum
damage. Eighty-six Army and Navy personnel were killed
and eleven aircraft were destroyed. A number of buildings
and fuel tanks were also demolished and a barracks ship,
the Northwestern, was damaged. In return, 11th Fighter
Squadron fighters based at Otter Point, an airfield built
in secret near Dutch Harbor on the east end of Umnak
Island, intercepted and shot down five Japanese aircraft.
