The video title should say "Carrier" where it says "Battleship."

The ads arrive every few minutes. Thanks for nothing.

An impressive tale but the story is a generation wasted by the missteps and misdeeds of the various governments.

[@paladin0654]

Shinano started as BB but was launched as an aircraft carrier.

[@jefft9426]

Amazing story of that pilot's struggle to survive.

[@user-zd9ex2bn7q]

Nobody does aircraft carriers like the USA 😊

[@JeffreyWilliams-dr7qe]

Is this the actor who stars in the old spice ads? Good Call!

[@wiseguy8828]

Hi, any way to find out the names of these books? Or at least the names of the people writing their memoirs? I’d love to look up the name of the writer and read more about them.

You are doing great

IJN Shinano was a 72,000 ton aircraft carrier, built and converted from the third Yamato hull that had been on hold since December 1940. She was sunk during her move from Yokosuka to Kure to complete fitting out and training up her crew. She was only 10 days in commission when she was sunk by Archerfish.

He was hit in the head by TWO fifty caliber rounds and HE STILL HAD A HEAD?
