Thanks!
Thanks!
Thank you for that.
Admiral Bull Halsey barely got a slap on the wrist for losing about 800 sailors and some ships in a couple of typhoons.
My Grandpas ship. Thankfully he got off when it got to Vallejo. I might not be here if he had gone on that final mission.
NatGO will have it on TV in a 2 hour special soon I guess.
It is a great find for the benefit of our history and their families. But how long will it be before the worm turns and leftists will call their mission of nukes un-PC. It is not that far fetched in our new age of PC tyranny. We need to fight the pattern of historical change for PC just as we need to fight invaders entering our homes.
Perhaps Allen he can find Hillary’s 30000 emails.
If it is ever on again, look for a show called “Into the Arizona”
It was on PBS.

It was at night (midnight) so many of the watertight hatches would have been closed. But as badly as it was damaged a lot of bulkheads would have been blown down.
Great, it’s been found, now leave it alone. There is no good reason to disturb it’s resting place
Ship of Gold at the Bottom of the Deep Blue Sea recounts the recovery and does a play by play of the epic struggle when it sank. A must read book. Unfortunately Thompson has kinda lost his marbles after the story timeline.
USS Lexington found.
They found the USS Juneau. It is the ship the five Sullivan brothers died on.
