Which I don't understand
Along with the carrier attack, why didn't the army launch a full scale B-17 and B-24 assault from Midway and carpet bomb the Jap fleet?
I am not sure how many planes were in the attack but I think they did attempt something like that but I would guess the Japanese kept their ships far enough apart so any attack would have been against only one ship.
