The Pacific War Council was an inter-governmental body established in 1942 and intended to control the Allied war effort in the Pacific and Asian campaigns of World War II. Following the establishment of the short-lived American-British-Dutch-Australian military command (ABDACOM) in January 1942, the governments of Australia, the Netherlands and New Zealand began to push Winston Churchill for an inter-governmental war council based in Washington D.C. The Far Eastern Council was established in London on February 9, with a corresponding staff council in Washington. However the smaller powers continued to push for a Washington-based body.

  • The Pacific War Council was an inter-governmental body established in 1942 and intended to control the Allied war effort in the Pacific and Asian campaigns of World War II. Following the establishment of the short-lived American-British-Dutch-Australian military command (ABDACOM) in January 1942, the governments of Australia, the Netherlands and New Zealand began to push Winston Churchill for an inter-governmental war council based in Washington D.C. The Far Eastern Council was established in London on February 9, with a corresponding staff council in Washington. However the smaller powers continued to push for a Washington-based body. The Pacific War Council was formed in Washington on April 1, 1942, with a membership consisting of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, his key advisor Harry Hopkins, and representatives from Britain, China, Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands and Canada. Representatives from India and the Philippines were later added. Australia and New Zealand (Prime Ministers John Curtin and Peter Fraser) wanted a council which was responsible for higher direction of the Pacific War; the London Council (Far East Council) was purely advisory and subordinate. Roosevelt wanted to retain the current arrangements for British-American collaboration, and suggested that where the interests of the three countries (Australia, the Dutch East Indies and New Zealand) were involved they could attend meetings of the Combined Chiefs of Staff in Washington (CCOS) and give their views on the spot. In return, the United States undertook the establishment of close working arrangements with the three military missions so they could give informed advice. Both Australia and New Zealand accepted under protest. Much of the impetus for the council was lost during the collapse of ABDACOM, in March and April. The council never had any direct operational control and any decisions it made were referred to the U.S.-British Combined Chiefs of Staff, which was also in Washington. Although there were relatively few U.S. forces in the Pacific in mid-1942, the sheer volume of matériel and forces controlled by the United States government soon gave it effective control of strategy in the Pacific War.

  • O Conselho de Guerra do Pacífico foi um órgão intergovernamental estabelecido em 1942 e destinado a controlar o esforço de guerra dos Aliados nas campanhas do Pacífico e da Ásia da Segunda Guerra Mundial. Após o estabelecimento do comando militar americano-britânico-holandês-australiano de curta duração (ABDACOM) em janeiro de 1942, os governos da Austrália, Holanda e Nova Zelândia começaram a pressionar Winston Churchill para um conselho de guerra intergovernamental com sede em Washington D.C. O Conselho do Extremo Oriente foi estabelecido em Londres em 9 de fevereiro, com um conselho de funcionários correspondente em Washington. No entanto, as potências menores continuaram a pressionar por um órgão baseado em Washington. O Conselho de Guerra do Pacífico foi formado em Washington em 1º de abril de 1942, com membros formados pelo presidente Franklin D. Roosevelt, seu principal conselheiro Harry Hopkins e representantes da Grã-Bretanha, China, Austrália, Nova Zelândia, Holanda e Canadá. Representantes da Índia e das Filipinas foram adicionados posteriormente. A Austrália e a Nova Zelândia (os primeiros-ministros John Curtin e Peter Fraser ) queriam um conselho que fosse responsável pela direção superior da Guerra do Pacífico; o Conselho de Londres (Conselho do Extremo Oriente) era puramente consultivo e subordinado Roosevelt queria manter os atuais arranjos para a colaboração anglo-americana e sugeriu que, onde os interesses dos três países (Austrália, Índias Orientais Holandesas e Nova Zelândia) estivessem envolvidos, eles puderam assistir às reuniões dos Chefes de Estado-Maior Combinados em Washington (CCOS) e dar as suas opiniões no local. Em troca, os Estados Unidos comprometeram-se a estabelecer acordos de trabalho estreitos com as três missões militares para que pudessem dar conselhos informados. Tanto a Austrália quanto a Nova Zelândia aceitaram sob protesto. Grande parte do ímpeto do conselho foi perdido durante o colapso da ABDACOM, em março e abril. O conselho nunca teve nenhum controle operacional direto e todas as decisões que tomava eram encaminhadas ao Estado-Maior Combinado EUA-Britânico, que também estava em Washington. Embora houvesse relativamente poucas forças dos EUA no Pacífico em meados de 1942, o grande volume de material e forças controladas pelo governo dos Estados Unidos logo lhe deu o controle efetivo da estratégia na Guerra do Pacífico.
