Pearl Harbor is what most people think of when they think of the Japanese bombing a harbor on US soil. However, there was another harbor that was bombed as well, and that was Dutch Harbor, Alaska. This video will tell you all about it.
This video has to do with the military in Alaska. Alaska has been important strategically to many military operations, particularly after World War II.
During World War II the remote Aleutian Islands, home to the Unangan (Aleut) people for over 8,000 years, became a fiercely contested battleground in the Pacific.
This thousand-mile-long archipelago saw invasion by Japanese forces; the occupation of two islands; a mass relocation of Unangax civilians; a 15-month air war; and one of the deadliest battles in the Pacific Theater.

Filipinos in the Aleutian Homes by James Guilas
This film explains and celebrates the history of Filipinos living in Kodiak's historic Aleutian Homes neighborhood through the lens of its residents as well as a local Land Title Agent.
This film was shot and produced by 11th-grader James Guilas as part of the Kodiak's Filipino Community Stories project, a collaborative effort between the Baranov Museum, the Filipino American Association of Kodiak, the Kodiak Island Borough School District, and Media Action.
This project is supported in part by a grant from the Alaska Humanities Forum and the National Endowment for the Humanities, a federal agence. Any views, findings, conclusions or recommendations expressed herein do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The Artistry and History of Aleutian Islands Bentwood Hats
Alaska Native artist Patty Lekanoff-Gregory explains the technique and artistry of making Unangax (Aleut) bentwood hats and visors. She also shares the importance of these hats in traditional Aleutian Islands culture. Patty was born and raised in Unalaska, on Unalaska Island in the Aleutian Islands chain of Alaska, which is the westernmost part of the United States. She is the daughter of Nicholai S. Lekanoff, originally from the now abandoned village of Makushin (Unalaska Island), and Polly Kudrin Lekanoff, originally from the now abandoned village of Kashega (Unalaska Island).

Before Japan entered World War II, its Navy gathered extensive information about the Aleutians and the military developments on the islands, even still, little was really known about establishments on the island chain. With what little knowledge they had, Japan sent it's northern fleet, consisting of 30 war ships and 8,500 troops, against the Aleutians. Launching an air attack on Dutch Harbor on June the third. Followed by an ambitious landing on Adak Island. Adak was uninhabited, and while the Japanese technically scored a victory at Dutch harbor, the foggy weather which prevented American air responses, also meant that only around half of the Japanese bombs reached their target.
What was substantial was that a Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero, the most common Japanese fighter, was damaged during the attack crash landed. The Americans managed to repair the plane, and used it to study the weaknesses of the Zero fighter. Following this, the Japanese invaded the islands of Kiska and Attu, meeting little resistance. Japan made Kiska harbor their main naval base, and the Americans established an air base on Adak island where they bombed Japanese positions and naval convoys. Following the Battle of the Komandorski Islands, where the Americans damaged two of the Japanese cruisers, it was decided that the Japanese forces in Alaska would no longer be supplied by surface ships, and submarines were the only way to re-supply the forces.
On May the 11th of 1943, the Americans launched an operation with the goal of re-capturing attu with 15,000. The landing was fraut with supply issues, and many men died of frost-bite due to lack of cold supplies, and many units were fed in piecemeal due to the lack of landing craft. The Japanese in-turn, occupied the high ground far from the shores, and a bloodbath ensued, with nearly 3,900 American Casualties. Even still though, the Americans managed to push the Japanese, who never numbered more then 3,000 back to a harbor over the weeks of fighting. With no hope of rescue, the Japanese launched one of the largest Banzai charges of the Pacific campaign on May the 29th, one that nearly succeeded in pushing the Americans back, but they were ultimately defeated after heavy fighting. With only 28 Japanese soldiers being captured. Leaving potentially 2,500 Japanese dead.
On August the 15th , Over 34,000 Canadian and American troops successfully landed on Kiska, but met nothing but an abandoned island, as the Japanese had left the island 18 days prior to their arrival un-benownst to the allies. Even still, the Americans and Canadians came out with over 300 casualties. All from Friendly fire, Japanese traps, disease and frostbite.
Remembering the Battle of Attu
Attu, Alaska's most distant island in the Aleutian chain, is both a National Wildlife Refuge and the site of the only land battle of World War II fought on North American soil. In May of 2018, we commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Battle.

Alaska at War
The Alaska at War film project was an effort to document events of World War II in Alaska. It was funded by the Alaska Legislature through the Alaska Historical Commission and was supported by the Alaska Historical Society and private subscription. The production work was performed by aurora Films, assisted by a citizen's advisory committee. The production Alaska at War was first shown in public on Alaska Day, October 18th 1986.
This collection was deposited in the University of Alaska Anchorage, Archives and Special collections Department by the Alaska Historical Commission in 1987. Additional papers were presented to the archives by the Alaska Air Command Historian's Office in 1989; and by the Alaska Department of Natural Resources, Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation, in 1990. The University of Alaska Anchorage offered these records to the Alaska State Archives July of 2010. Copyright to the production is retained by the State of Alaska. Reproduction of some photographs, oral history recordings, and film out takes requires the permission of the State of Alaska, Aurora Films, the interviewee, writer, or library of origin.
A special thanks goes to Damon Stuebner of the Alaska State Library, Historical Collections for his technical assistance.

World War II History on Kiska in the Aleutian Islands
Kiska is in the Rat Islands group of the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. The Japanese occupied Kiska and nearby Attu in 1943 in order to protect the northern flank of the Japanese Empire.
This is the only time the continental United States was occupied by a foreign power since the War of 1812! A very interesting landing on a piece of military history.

Military activities on the Aleutian Islands
Alaska photographer Howard C. Robinson presented these scenes of military activities at a secret base on Umnak near the end of World War II. Includes footage of soldiers laying a steel-mat runway. This is followed by footage of Massacre Bay at Attu and captured Japanese equipment on Kiska. Japanese items include a flag, a shrine, and a Zero plane that was shot down there. (Color/Silent/16mm film).
In notes accompanying the film, Robinson wrote: A person has to have the proper clothing to survive here. A hard place to work -- a hard place to live ... and still, along the beaches, scenic beauty that the California Chamber of Commerce would be proud of. The Aleutians -- very important to our country's defense.

Time-marker around 7:35, about the quote from Cpt. Bouchette:
“Unknown to the Japanese, cryptanalysts under the command of Ctp Joseph Rochefort, Hawaii, had partially broken the Imperial Navy’s JN-25 code, and by early spring 1942 provided U.S. forces the Japanese Navy’s order of battle for the pending Battle of Midway and the simultaneous attack of Dutch Harbor in the Aleutians. The fact that Cpt. Bouchette knew of the outcome of the Battle of Midway, a mere three days after it occurred, is hard evidence that the Aleutians were not a sidelight, but an integral part of the U.S. defense of the Pacific Theatre.”

The 49th Star
In November of 1955, a dedicated group of Alaskans gathered in Fairbanks to shape the future. The 49th Star chronicles a great story of American democracy – an account of 55 people who assembled in sub-zero temperatures to write a state constitution widely considered one of the best ever written and a pivotal achievement as Alaska continued its journey to statehood. ©KUAC 2006
