The FReeper non sequiter recommended to the forum the book "Shattered Sword, the untold story of the battle of Midway." by Jonathan Parschall. It describes the status of tha Japanese Navy in detail. It gives a literally minute by minute account of operations on the various japanese and American carriers that refute most accounts that are based on the work of LtCdr Fuchida.
I have read and then reread the book several times.
With a different understanding of the Japanese side of events, what major changes to your understanding of the event does it provide? (If the answer is 16 pages of subtle detail — I understand if you want to pass — LOL)
