Yes, I’ve often thought of what it must have been like for those poor bastards. Here they are running around, decks crowded with people, planes, torpedoes and bombs and they’re taking off torpedoes to re-arm their planes with bombs. Suddenly they look up and here are the Americans, literally about to put the drop on them and there is no where to run. Damn. Must have been a lot Japs losing control in the nether regions at that moment, if you know what I mean. Three carriers sunk in about 20 minutes.
What a sense of foreboding they must have had and yes I bet more than a few sh!t themselves.
