Q & A PLEASE Concerning this man's time during the war & in the Navy in general, Do you know if he did any other interviews like with the War Veterans Project? And I heard something mentioned about a book? Did he publish a book?

@imprisongroverfurr5252 Idk, but considering that most of the other ships in the Japanese columns were somewhat larger it would probably have gone very badly. You also have to take into account that the people aboard those ships that were still alive probably wanted to um stay that way. And even though their ships may have been sinking I'm sure they thought there was a good chance of rescue after abandoning the ship. And sailors were probably too busy trying to help wounded sailors and ramming would have probably caused a lot more of them to go down with the ships. Plus planes were doing a fairly good job of shooting at those ships & they didn't want to get in the way of friendly fire either.
