The turning point in the Pacific Theater was the American victory at Midway. This battle, fought from June 4 to June 7, 1942, resulted in a decisive defeat for the Japanese Navy and shifted the balance of power in the Pacific in favor of the Allies. Iwo Jima, although significant, occurred later in the war and was not considered a turning point like Midway.
