The US Navy was still dominated by officers that were promoted more for their alcohol capacity than any actual competence. A bunch of them were killed off in the crucible of Guadalcanal. The Japanese constantly failed to press their advantage during 1942. By 1943 so many ships were coming off into the US Fleet that Japan had absolutely no chance to gain a conditional peace treaty. Of course they were to stiff necked too surrender and save their people the devastations that 1944 brought.
You’re an asshole. Bugger off.
