The japanese desire for the " decisive battle" often seemed to be a case of 'be careful what you wish for'!
Very informative, thanks 👍👍👍
Love these episodes.
Thx.
emm@11? minutes- you forgot to tell us you tortured the pilot then murdered him- a detail.
Payback would come swiftly.
They dropped him into the propeller screws.
The Japanese biggest mistake was to rigidly adhere to an obsolete strategic policy based on old historical victories.
General/admirals are often accused of trying to fight this battle....like previous battles, often in a previous war.
Was there EVER a significant Surface Battle?
In the Solomons there were a number of horrific surface battles
Trafalgar
@@crobert79 no I meant out there....
In fact I had forgotten the battle of the Samar Strait, which I think was the greatest naval action of all time.
Surigao
More tales of Nagumo the butt pirate
While the US had good luck and the Japanese had bad luck the Japanese seemed to have compounded their bad luck. As has been pointed out the Japanese fetish for the decisive battle was a serious error.
Locking onto a strategy that will win the war with "one big move" is an obsession in many militaries.
During WWI, Gen Hague (Sp?) thought that all the British needed was one big cavalry charge through German lines. This would be followed by infantry who would pivot and encircle half of the Germans. He set up numerous times, had many false starts, but never got his charge.
There was also the Italian mindset that they were the true rulers of the Adriatic Sea. They only needed to get through Slovenia and Croatia and then drive straight to the Greek border. They led 11 assaults through the same area, each with tens of thousands of men. Each failed, ending in another meat grinder and stalemate.
The IJN didn’t appreciate the fact that “Hope isn’t a strategy”. They consistently put their preconceived view of ahead of facts, whether it was to launch a surprise attack on the Americans at Pearl, set a trap at Midway or a thousand other scenarios during the war.
Lots of Wishful thinking.
