sinking two Japanese BB's

Let me amend that. A bunch of destroyer and PT boat men might argue about who sunk what. Actually I think one of those Japanese BB's was definitely sunk before the US Battlewagons got their chance at her.

#127. I believe the ships name was FUSO. Yamashiro also took a torpedo hit but continued on into the trap laid at Surigao Strait where she was pummeled by more destroyer torpedoes as well as gunfire from the Battleships that were resurrected from Pearl Harbor, they finally got their revenge that night!!!!
