As for Kieron's opinion on Hawaii and Alaska,
A) Remember Pearl Harbor
B) Who's going to attack from Alaska? The only thing Alaska would be usable for in a war is the oil, because there's pretty much nobody home up there. Also, Canada is not a factor because you can't use a land invasion on Alaska. Juneau, the capital, actually has no roads leading out of it, and there's of course the Yukon mountains.
A) The Americans didn't know the Japanese were coming, the British knew the Germans were going to attack
B) It isn't a victory unless all of the land is conquered, whose to say they will attack from it, they'll probably defend from it.
