good translation too bad the show didnt get into more detail this battle was one sided but a incredable show of courage on the side of the japanese knowing they were going one way mission and the squadron of taffy3 in the battle of surigo straight...imagine going into a fight where your outgunned some 50-1 and if you dont hold the japanese off your entire invasion of the phillpines will fail

@RJF1966 Hi there!

This show hasn't enough space to get into many details. Each show of this program was half-hour and was divided to 3 episodes. So, each episode is about 10 minutes long. Towards the end they mentioned about the last battleship shootout at Gulf Layte, but sure 10 minutes are not enough to describe it at least at some acceptable level.

I saw documentary about Taffy3 squadron battle. They were curageous men and great followers of the best navy traditions from all times!
