The Forgotten War
A Pictorial History of World War II in Alaska and Northwestern Canada
by Stan Cohen
In most combat theaters of the Second World War the combatants had to fight only each other. In Alaska and northwestern Canada, however, they also did battle with the weather, the wilderness and boredom. The remote territory was probably the war’s least-known and least-publicized combat zone. Most of those who served there had never seen anything like it before, nor would they ever want to see it again.

The Aleutian Warriors
A History of the 11th Air Force & Fleet Air Wing 4
by John Haile Cloe
The Aleutian Campaign occurred during the early years of WWII. What was accomplished there has been obscured by time and overshadowed by the more dramatic events of other war theaters. It was the only campaign fought on North American soil during the war. It was primarily an air war where young men battled not only each other, but also the terrible, unforgiving elements of the storm-lashed, primeval place.

Center of the Storm
The Bombing of Dutch Harbor and the Experience of Patrol Wing Four in the Aleutians, Summer, 1942.
by Jeff Dickrell
Perhaps what most characterized the wartime struggle here was the inhospitable conditions, which proved more lethal than the Japanese. For every American plane lost in combat, six were lost to the weather. It is difficult to adequately describe what these men were up against. These men engaged in a major wartime undertaking in an environment that proved to be more treacherous than their enemy.
