The objective of the Japanese Navy at the Battle of Midway was two-fold. The first objective was to lure the American carriers out and destroy them. This would have given the Japanese Navy total superiority in the Pacific. The second objective, was to land an invasion force at Midway and take the atoll (the "island" of Midway). This would have provide Japan with an easternmost base capable of launching land based bombers to Hawaii.

Aloha: In 1887 the Bayonet Constitution was forced by armed Caucasians. The new constitution made voting rights only for Hawaiians, Americans, and Europeans this denied the rights for Japanese and other groups. The Japanese commissioner worked to pressure the Kingdom to restore the rights of Japanese by amending the constitution. In 1893 the Hawaiian Monarchy was overthrown. Continued presence of the Japanese Navy and Japan's opposition to the overthrow led to a concern that Japan might use military force to restore a queen, Liliʻuokalani, to her throne. Anti-Japanese sentiment developed amongst the annexationist government, press, and Americans over concerns that Japan might reverse their progress to annex Hawaii to the United States. In the 1890s, worrying about the increasing Americanization of their US-born children, the Japanese set up the first Japanese schools in the United States. In Hawaii, Japanese is a major language, spoken and studied by many of the state's residents across ethnicities. It is taught in private Japanese language schools as early as the second grade. As a courtesy to the large number of Japanese tourists (from Japan), Japanese subtexts are provided on place signs, public transportation, and civic facilities. The Hawaii media market has a few locally produced Japanese language newspapers and magazines,but these are dying out, due to lack of interest on the part of the local (Hawaii-born) Japanese population. Stores that cater to the tourist industry often have Japanese-speaking personnel. To show their allegiance to the U.S., many Nisei and Sansei intentionally avoided learning Japanese. But as many of the later generations find their identities in both Japan and America, studying Japanese is becoming more popular than it once was. Once as high as 43%, the Japanese population now is around 17%.
At the time of the Japanese surprise attack in 1941, Pearl Harbor was a US Naval base. So the person in charge was the ranking Naval officer in Hawaii, Admiral Husband Edward Kimmel. The Japanese Commander of the force that atacked Pearl Harbor was Admiral Chūichi Nagumo.
It takes Air Force One approximately 9 hours to fly from Andrews Air Force Base to Honolulu, Hawaii.
The overall Japanese plan was very complicated. They were attacking in five widely separated areas, and all were to commence just as soon as the attack on Hawaii was under way. These included the naval air attack on Hawaii, an invasion of the Philippines, two invasions in southeast Asia, and an attack on Wake Island. Wake Island was a US possession and, unlike Hawaii, the Japanese intended to land troops and capture and hold the island. But their initial attack was repulsed by the Marine Defense Battalion on Wake. Part of the task force returning from Hawaii was diverted to support a renewed effort to capture Wake Island.
Imperial Japanese Army Air Force Academy ended in 1945.
