May 1st — May 4th
Battle of the Coral Sea

One of the most important battles in the history of naval warfare occurred in early May of 1942. The Battle of the Coral Sea was the first air-naval battle in history, as none of the carriers fired at each other. As a result, Japan had sunk more ships, but the Allies managed to halt a major Japanese offensive for the first time in World War II.

May 4th — May 7th
P-47 first flight

The P-47 Thunderbolt fighter first took flight on May 6th, 1941. Nicknamed "Jug" for its appearance, it was one of the heaviest and most powerful aircraft of the World War II era. The P-47 was successful in both air combat and ground assault; it was widely used in European and Pacific theaters of World War II and also by the USSR through the lend-lease program.

May 7th — May 10th
The end of the Great Patriotic War

Victory! The Red Army repelled the Axis powers for four long years: it defended Moscow, took back Stalingrad, reclaimed the initiative at Kursk, and then kicked the invaders out and chased them all the way to Berlin. The German Instrument of Surrender marked the end of the Great Patriotic War — the hardest in the entire history of the USSR and Russia.

May 10th — May 13th
Operation Diadem

To Rome! Beginning in early 1944, the Allies had tried to breach the Gustav Line whilst taking heavy casualties. The fourth attempt, called Operation Diadem, began May 11th and turned out to be successful, opening the path towards the capital of Italy.

May 13th — May 16th
The end of the Tunisian campaign

The North African campaign that lasted for almost three years had been put to an end in Tunisia. By May 13th, 1943 over 200,000 German and Italian soldiers had surrendered to the Allied forces, allowing them to turn to Sicily and later continental Italy.

May 18th — May 21st
Creation of the North Caucasian Front

The North Caucasian Front was created by the USSR on May 20th, 1942 to defend The Azov and Black sea coastlines. Led by Marshal Semyon Budenny, the North Caucasian Front was fought in the Stavropol and Krasnodar regions, stopping the invading forces from crossing the Caucasus mountain range.

May 22nd — May 25th
Battle of Boulogne

During the Battle for France, German forces surrounded the Allies in the town of Boulogne-sur-Mer, forcing them to defend themselves. Poor communication between the Allies led to a large number of British troops evacuating by sea, abandoning the Welsh Guards and surprising the French. Nevertheless, the defense of Boulogne had delayed the German advance towards Dunkirk, where the mass evacuation of Allied troops took place.

May 27th — May 30th
Bf 109 first flight

The Messerschmitt Bf 109, a legendary fighter aircraft, took to the air for the first time on May 28th, 1935. It soon became the most mass-produced German aircraft. It was used by numerous aces of World War II: from Günther Rall to Erich Hartmann, the most successful fighter ace in history. Even with the advent of jet aircraft, the Bf 109 remained popular: the Spanish Air Force continued to use it until late in 1965.

May 1st — May 4th
Battle of the Coral Sea

From May 4th through 8th of 1942, Japan and the Allies fought in the Coral Sea, although indirectly: vessels of both sides never fired at or even saw each other, relying instead on aircraft. Strategic victory went to the Allies: they managed to halt Japan's advance and hurt its air carrier fleet that led to a decisive victory at Midway.

May 4th — May 7th
Battle of Madagascar

To prevent a Japanese naval base from possibly being built on Madagascar that at the time belonged to Vichy France, Britain decided to conquer the island. On May 5th, 1942 Commonwealth troops landed on the northern point of Madagascar and half a year later established full control over it. It was the first large-scale operation of World War II where ground, naval, and air forces of the Allies participated in tandem.

May 7th — May 10th
The end of the World War II in Europe

This was the biggest ordeal that the Allies had faced, and it’s finally over. Six long years of war, dozens of strategic operations on thousands of miles of the frontlines, and countless acts of heroism of regular soldiers — and at last, victory! Nazi Germany capitulated, the war ended, and heroes can finally go home to their families.

May 10th — May 13th
Operation Diadem

The fourth and final battle at Monte Cassino began on May 11th, 1944. After three failed offensives the Allies spent two months preparing for an attack that would be a surprise for the Wehrmacht — and succeeded. The Gustav Line in Central Italy was breached, and the German forces retreated to the Hitler Line.

May 13th — May 17th
The end of the Tunisian campaign

During the final months of the North African campaign the Axis powers kept retreating, suffering from lack of fuel and reinforcements. In Tunisia they fell back to well fortified defensive positions, but their defeat was only a matter of time. That time came on May 13th, 1943, when over 200 thousand troops from Germany and Italy surrendered to the Allies.

May 18th — May 22nd
Battle of Crete

From May 20th through 31st of 1941 Germany executed an operation to capture Crete. It was the first large-scale airborne invasion in history: over 20 thousand German paratroopers were involved in the operation. As a result the British army lost almost all of its forces stationed on Crete, but Germany suffered heavy losses as well and never authorized large-scale airborne operations again.

May 23rd — May 26th
Senger Line

After the defeat at the Gustav Line the Wehrmacht retreated to the Hitler Line, which didn't last long either and fell to the assault of Polish and Canadian forces. To make its fall seem less significant, Hitler had renamed it to the Senger Line beforehand. After the victory the Allies instead of routing the retreating German forces decided to march on Rome which was taken without a battle on June 4th.

May 27th— May 30th
F-4 Phantom first flight

On May 27th, 1958, a McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II fighter took its maiden flight. Thanks to its high adaptability it became the most produced American supersonic military aircraft and the most iconic aircraft of the US Air Force during the Cold War. It was widely used by the US during the Vietnam War, by Israel in many conflicts, and is still employed by several countries.
