Central Pacific from Hawaii and Midway under Admiral Chester W. Nimitz. Southwest Pacific from New Guinea and the Solomon Islands under General Douglas MacArthur. Burma from India with British and American units, Chinese troops, and US air support. Mountbatten is to command Burma with vigorous prosecution of the war.
