The Battle of Leyte Gulf is generally considered to be the largest naval battle of World War II and, by some criteria, possibly the largest naval battle in history.
The Battle of Tsushima (Russian: Цусимское сражение , "Tsusimskoye srazheniye"), also known as the Battle of Tsushima Strait and the Naval Battle of the Sea of Japan (Japanese: 日本海海戦, "Nihonkai-Kaisen") in Japan, was a major naval battle fought between Russia and Japan during the Russo-Japanese War.
 It was naval history's only decisive sea battle fought by modern steel battleship fleets, and the first naval battle in which wireless telegraphy (radio) played a critically important role.
 It has been characterized as the "dying echo of the old era – for the last time in the history of naval warfare, ships of the line of a beaten fleet surrendered on the high seas".
The MacArthur Landing Memorial National Park (also known as the Leyte Landing Memorial Park and MacArthur Park) is a protected area of the Philippines that commemorates the historic landing of General Douglas MacArthur in Leyte Gulf at the start of the campaign to recapture and liberate the Philippines from Japanese occupation on 20 October 1944.
 This event led to the largest naval battle of World War II and Japan's eventual defeat and surrender after almost three years.
 The war memorial is located in the municipality of Palo on Leyte island in Eastern Visayas and is one of the region's major tourist attractions.
 It was declared a national park on 12 July 1977 through Letter of Instructions No. 572 signed by President Ferdinand Marcos.
Thomas Cassin Kinkaid (3 April 1888 – 17 November 1972) served as an admiral in the United States Navy during World War II.
 He built a reputation as a "fighting admiral" in the aircraft carrier battles of 1942 and commanded the Allied forces in the Aleutian Islands Campaign.
 He was Commander Allied Naval Forces and the Seventh Fleet under General of the Army Douglas MacArthur in the Southwest Pacific Area, where he conducted numerous amphibious operations, and commanded an Allied fleet during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, largest naval battle of World War II and the last naval battle between battleships in history.
Leyte Gulf is a gulf in the Eastern Visayan region in the Philippines.
 The bay is part of the Philippine Sea of the Pacific Ocean, and is bounded by two islands; Samar in the north and Leyte in the west.
 On the south of the bay is Mindanao Island, separated from Leyte by the Surigao Strait.
 Dinagat Island partly encloses the gulf to the southeast, and the small Homonhon Island and Suluan Island, sit astride the eastern entrance to the Gulf.
 It is approximately 130 km (80 mi) north-south, and 60 km (40 mi) east-west.
The Gothic Line (German: "Gotenstellung" ; Italian: "Linea Gotica" ) was a German defensive line of the Italian Campaign of World War II.
 It formed Field Marshal Albert Kesselring's last major line of defence along the summits of the northern part of the Apennine Mountains during the fighting retreat of the German forces in Italy against the Allied Armies in Italy, commanded by General Sir Harold Alexander.
Gothic Line order of battle is a listing of the significant formations that were involved in Operation "Olive", the Allied offensive on the Gothic Line in northern Italy, August–September 1944, and in the subsequent fighting in the central Apennine mountains and on the plains of eastern Emilia–Romagna up to April 1945.
USS "Leyte Gulf" (CG-55) is a "Ticonderoga"-class guided missile cruiser in the United States Navy.
 She was named in memory of the World War II Battle of Leyte Gulf in the Pacific.
 She is powered by four large gas-turbine engines, and she has a large complement of guided missiles for air defense, attack of surface targets at sea and ashore, and anti-submarine warfare (ASW).
 In addition, she carries two "Seahawk" LAMPS multi-purpose helicopters, whose primary mission is ASW.
The "Chitose"-class aircraft carriers (千歳型航空母艦 , Chitose-gata kōkūbokan ) were a class of two seaplane tenders, later converted to light aircraft carriers, of the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II.
 Under the terms of the Washington Naval Treaty, the total tonnage of Japan's naval vessels was limited by class.
 The "Chitose"-class ships were built as seaplane tenders, designed to make the conversion to aircraft carriers relatively easy.
 They served as seaplane tenders during the early part of the Pacific War.
 After the Battle of Midway, they were converted into light aircraft carriers.
 Both ships participated in the Battle of the Philippine Sea and both were sunk in the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
The Battle of Rimini took place between 13 and 21 September 1944 during Operation "Olive", the main Allied offensive on the Gothic Line in August and September 1944, part of the Italian Campaign in the Second World War.
 Rimini, a town on the Adriatic coast of Italy, anchored the Rimini Line, a German defensive line which was the third such line forming the Gothic Line defences.
