Using the strategy of Island Hoping, United States used to attack and take over one Island at a time and then use that Island as a Launchpad to attack another Island. Use of this Strategy isolated Japanese bases and reduced their abilities to supply support to those Islands.

Not only this Strategy saved time but it also saved lives of many people as because of the use of this strategy, war was cut short.
