  3. Flag officers and valuable pilots throwing their lives away pointlessly in order to make some grand romantic gesture is exactly the sort of thing that guaranteed Japan's loss in WW2. There's nothing honorable about putting your personal "face" above the needs of your country, it's just an act of selfish stupidity.

  16. Back in junior high I was a gaming nerd with specific tastes, and there were a few games from the now defunct Strategies And Tactics Magazine that were WW2 oriented.
    I always tried to hit the Soryu first, and it generally worked.
    But I would lose my butt every time I invaded Sicily.
    Thanks for reminding me of those games and the friends I made playing them,those were awesome days, in the 70s.
    Keep making the videos and I'll keep liking them.

  26. I really liked matching these events from what I recall of the video on the American perspective—the one about Kleiss, the bomber pilot who destroyed or participated in destroying all three carriers. Really great video. I hope you do more videos in the future that feature the different sides of the same battle. Obviously Midway was such a complex battle that has been studied to death in the decades since so it was a prime candidate for this sort of thing, but I'm sure there's others out there that would make for great videos like these ones.

  29. 2:25😂😂😂 носить втроем на руках бронебойные бомбы по 800 килограмм каждая, и 900 килограммовые торпеды. Чуваки я давно так не смеялся.

  39. It said that Admiral Yamaguchi committed seppuku facing the rising sun, aboard the sinking ship and Capt Kaku was his second. After the deed was done, Capt Kaku himself thrust his sword into his abdomen upto the hilt and gave up the ghost.

  45. The American ships had steamed from almost the exact position the Junior officers had put them in a war game exercise. They were told there was no way the Americans would be there and the exercise was restarted with the Americans coming form Pearl Harbor as the higher officers believed would happen. The two forces spotted each other at about the same time so who could launch first was most important. The Japanese would have been better off just launching their planes with whatever they were loaded with which would have at least got the planes off although even then the carriers would have been wrecked just from ordnance spread across the decks. Those planes would have still done damage to the Americans and would have been able to land on one of the carriers that had not been hammered.
