never ceased to be amazed how Kimmel got the boot but somehow McArthur was treated as a hero....

Kimmel was expendable. Dugout Doug wasn't.

should also add; if Kimmel was kept around a bit longer Wake may have never fallen but when they kicked Kimmel out they gave up Wake...Another great historical book for you:
