How would the war have gone if Japan, after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, they had brought troop ships. If they had taken a large number of their troops occupying China and landed them in Hawaii to occupy the base and the Island.
Could they have won and claimed the Island as part of their empire?
If they have, how would that had affected the war then.
I See that if they had been able to do that that it would have a massive affect. All of those damaged ships would have had not been able to be repaired. The rest of the fleet being able to fuel and prepare to fight japan from Hawaii now would have to go to California and start from there.
