  1. All I know is it's a lot easier to sort out which size wrench or socket to use with metric as standard. If 10mm is too small, then the next size up is 11mm not 25/64ths or 7/16ths or whatever size you fiddle around trying to figure out. If you're a machinist then you use the decimal system automatically.

  4. Question: Why don't Americans use the metric system? Answer: Because they like giving the big middle finger to England! 😂

  6. The Battle of Midway basically reversed the roles of the Japanese and American navies. The Japanese navy was unable to mount a successful offensive after that and went on the defensive. The US navy finally came off a defensive position and was able to go on the offensive. Even if the Battle of Midway went with the Japanese prevailing, it still would have only been a matter of time before the same outcome happened in the Pacific theater.
