You will find difference regarding which WW2 battles are the most popular. There is no discrepancy as to the fights considered major. I guess the obvious factor used in determining the size would be "casualties" and then "monetary value".

Take for instance  Dalton Schultz Jersey , the Battle of the Atlantic which began in 1939 with merchant ships traveling primarily to the United Kingdom and Russia. The merchant vessels delivering war materials and equipment had been shelled and sunk by German U-Boats as well as continued throughout the war until 1945. Eventually Allied Forces were able to get the upper-hand but at a huge price with more than 3,500 vendor ships and 175 war ships lost at sea. Germany also suffered severely using more than 783 U-boats lost. The Battle of the Atlantic lasted until the end of the war making it the longest running campaign in WW2 and definitely considered a major battle.

On the other end from the spectrum would be the Battle from the Philippine Sea in June 1944, a naval battle between the United States and Japan. One of the most one-side battles in WW2 history. This naval battle took place in the Philippine Ocean, near the Mariana Islands. This battle lasted 2 days  Dorance Armstrong Jr. Jersey , and had been labeled "The Great Marianas Turkey Shoot". The actual Imperial Navy of Japan lost three aircraft carriers and more than 600 planes. The Ough.S. Navy in contrast misplaced 123 planes and most of those had been a result of pilots trying to property at night.

The primary reason behind japan loss was due to unskilled pilots. Most of the experienced Japoneses pilots were shot down during previous WW2 battles from Guadalcanal and Midway, thereby pitting experienced American pilots against the inexperienced Japanese pilots proving to be disastrous. The Ough.S. Navy in contrast misplaced 123 planes and most of those had been a result of pilots trying to property at night.

The losses at Midway, Guadalcanal and the Philippines, certainly helped Allied Forces when it came to the battle at Leyte Beach. The previous losses weakened japan naval forces resulting in fewer boats  Michael Gallup Jersey , planes, weapons and experienced personnel such as pilots. Japan continued to be at a disadvantage through out the war.

These WW2 fights show that the length of a conflict does not necessarily determine the value of the battle. Both of these fights, Philippine Sea and Fight of the Atlantic, although differing significantly in length  Chaz Green Cowboys Jersey , they were each important and considered major battles. They both had large numbers of casualties, and they both created an impact on other battles throughout the WW2.

I bet should you ask any one of the men or women who participated in any of the , they will let you know, all of the battles were "Major" to them!

RIO DE JANEIRO  Byron Jones Cowboys Jersey , May 25 (Xinhua) -- At least 89 prisoners escaped from a prison in the northern Brazilian state of Rio Grande de Norte, getting out through a 30-meter tunnel, official sources said on Thursday.

According to the state government, the events happened on Thursday morning in the prison of Pernamirim  Maliek Collins Cowboys Jersey , in the state capital of Natal.

The prisoners escaped through a tunnel of around 30 meters, which went from a prison wing to outside the walls. This is the biggest jailbreak in Rio Grande do Norte history, with just nine having been recaptured so far.

According to military police, at least two cars and a motorbike were seen outside the prison being used to help the rescue. It added that the prisoners had changed clothes from their prison outfits to make their identification more difficult.

This is the second escape from the same jail this year  Jaylon Smith Cowboys Jersey , after 14 prisoners broke out in January, again through a tunnel.

The prison is designed for a maximum of 436 prisoners, but it reportedly had 589 inmates at the time of the breakout.
