I don't know if the expression "the military leader of the US", is a good expression. What means to be "the military leader of the US"? Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the Commander In Chief was. Frank Jack Fletcher had only two stars rank at Coral Sea and Midway, and three stars rank at Eastern Solomon. He was the victorious leader of the American Carrier Task Forces in these three battles. From May 8th (Coral Sea) to August 24 (Eastern Solomon) both dates in 1942, he turned the ofensive capacity of Japanese into a Only defensive capacity. We could say perhaps that in this period, he was a leader, when most of the people were afraid and thought they were weak to fight the Japanes with success. Fletcher taught all of them to be victors despite the fear. It was not a long period, but a very important one. Captain Marvin E. Butcher said in an article about Fletcher: "Let we, who now presume to judge Admiral Fletcher, hope that we can perform as well should we be so tested at the onset of a war for national survival". This was the merit of Frank Jack Fletcher, no more, no less. Andrés Lazarús del Castillo www.admiralfletchervictories.com

Admiral Frank Jack Fletcher was the US Navy's commander at the pivotal Battles of the Coral Sea in May 1942 and Midway in June 1942. He also commanded in the Battle of the Eastern Solomons in August 1942. These were three of the four great carrier battles of 1942, and there was not another until 1944. By that time Fletcher was commander in the North Pacific. Fletcher's papers were lost in combat, and he refused to reconstruct them from the naval archives. Fletcher also declined to be interviewed by the influential official Navy historian, Samuel Elliott Morrison. So Morrison got his nose out of joint and ignored Fletcher's contributions in his published works, and later historians have picked up on this and followed Morrison's lead. Fletcher earned a Medal of Honor as a young officer at Vera Cruz, Mexico in 1914.
