Ping to Army vets with an interest in the WW2 Battle of Midway. Last year this team located the USS Yorktown, a few days ago they located the Japanese carrier Kaga, and now they have located and identified the Akagi. Just 2 more sunken Japanese carriers to go: Soryu and Hiryu

Yorktown was located and photographed in 1998.

I can’t tell you how comforting it is to know that all four of those Japanese carriers sleep in the depths. Made all the difference for us from then on.
