Not so surprising that they could find ONE ship of the 4,000 sunk

Pretty close to Sasebo, about halfway between Nagasaki and Fukuoka.

Pity that they had to wait until 1951 for the BBQ named after them to be discovered.

Excellent. It appears to be in good condition, and I’ll be interested in knowing what more they discover.

Actually, it's the second from two armadas that may have totaled 8,000+ ships. A typhoon for each flotilla.

What a coincidence. During WWII, Admiral Halsey, during actions against Japan, took his fleet into not one, but two typhoons, narrowly escaping courts-martial.
