Answer:

The answer is Island Hopping.

Step-by-step explanation:

Island Hopping or the Leapfrogging was the strategy employed by the US military to defeat the Japanese strategically during the 2nd world war.

The aim was to capture significant and strategically located islands and to develop military bases in them and then use them to attack the Japanese bases.

Eventually, the Japanese main land would come under the range of US bombers.
