Comments by "BunzeeBear" (@bunzeebear2973) on "The Rise and Fall of the Japanese Zero" video.
Not the way THEY told it. I read the paperback and it was translated into English. "The Divine Wind" I believe. It may be on YouTube though I think the book is better. I just skip over the Japanese names because it is irrelevant. None lived. . Luck was on the U.S. side because their aircraft carriers were out in the ocean performing maneuvers that day so none were docked. This was the real goal of the Japanese...to knock out the floating airstrips. They did not find them so had to bomb what was there. Smaller destroyers and frigates and tugboats...and do the Kamikaze maneuver as some of the bombs would not release. If one does it, then they all do it. A sure way to hit the target. It was what it was. Either do something for there is no Japanese restaurants nearby...so taken as a POW is great shame.
