Answer 1

C. It was an Allied victory that got the Allies close enough to mainland Japan to launch an invasion.

The Battle of Okinawa was fought from April to June 1945 during World War II. It was a major battle between the United States and its allies against Japan, and it was the largest amphibious assault in the Pacific War. The outcome of the battle was an Allied victory, which brought them closer to mainland Japan and set the stage for the planned invasion of Japan. However, the battle was also extremely costly in terms of lives lost, with over 100,000 Japanese soldiers and civilians, as well as 12,500 Allied troops, being killed in the fighting.
