The Defenders:
On 2 June 1942, Japan launched an attack on the US Navy facilities at Dutch Harbour, Alaska. The United States officially appealed for Canada’s help in the defence of the besieged Alaska and its Aleutian Islands, that were under attack and partially occupied by Japanese Air and Naval Forces.
Canada immediately sent 15 Squadrons of battle hardened RCAF Fighter and Bomber Reconnaissance aircraft, which fought valiantly with the Japanese Mitsubishi Zero and Rufe and Aichi Jake Seaplane fighters, as well as with the atrocious Aleutian weather which together cost many lives.
