Japanese Cruiser Atago Tried One Final Time to Grapple with the American Battlewagons

Fascinating...and thank you so much for preserving this vital history.

Thanks!

Ching Lee was a national pistol shooting champion and also an expert marksman with a rifle.He also won gold at the olympics I believe.

The Night the Giants Rode.

The led vessel must have been very heavy😂

Lee should have been the leader of US forces in Guadalcanal right from the start. With his knowledge of radar, he would have won the first night battle too and plenty of lives and ships would have been saved.

Not much was said about those Japanese transports that got cought in the open if tha commentator wanted to talk about people experiencing the horrors of war that had plenty of casulties to describe but it is the Japans perspective of the war after all

Another fantastic account! Naval war in its most hellish moments, blow by blow. Both saddening and inspiring.
Thank you!

I was proud of the “reader” for pronouncing the word “bow” correctly, once anyway . A few minutes later it pronounced it as in “bow tie”. AI can learn - slowly.

This is like listening to a boxing match, Admiral "Ching" Lee was a master at his craft, gone too soon, so much unfulfilled promise.

Willis A. Lee was one of the finest naval commanders the U.S. ever produced. He is not nearly as known or revered as he should be.

Admiral "Ching Lee" knew what he was doing.

Thanks!

As the Japanese soldier looked up and saw a bomb within striking distance of him, his last thought was So much for returning home to take over the family chopsticks manufacturing business.
