They got payback alright, but it would've been sweeter revenge if the old battleships got a chance to engage the Shokaku and Zuikaku since they were the last two carriers of the original Pearl Harbor Strike Force
@korgboy98 Halsey obeyed orders of the day...Get the Flattops FIRST. If Nimitz wanted the bb'[s stopped, Halsey's written orders should have specified. No win situation for the 'Bull'.
Dad was a marine with the 11th Gun Battalion. He left us a diary.
Oct 25 Jap fleet approaching Leyte Island so Bn. is moved into seacoast position on beach at San Jose. That night several more planes shot down. Also able to hear firing of U.S. Fleet in action against Jap vessels.
Oct 26 Still in seacoast position. Lt. Hartwell is killed by stabbing while on liason with other arty. Bn. The loss of a good officer and friend who has been with me since bootcamp.
poor sailors... Fighting ships 5 times the size of themselves... A single 18.1 inch shell from Yamato could wipe out a single Fletcher class destroyer O_O pretty scarry....
You go, salvaged battleships! Light 'em up!
