Very true, it happened in the Philippine Sea, and named after our islands (Marianas islands) The Great Marianas Turkey Shoot. So, we both have part of that history, Thank You to all the Veterans living and who've passed away, for liberating our people and islands from the Japanese. 🇺🇸🇲🇵
The US carriers' main contribution was in their pilots' decimating the Japanese air crews. US submarines actually did more damage to the Japanese fleet.
they got two carriers and Big E and Intrepid sank the remainders of Ozowa's force. as for the Japanese Zekes that live on the carriers we blew them out of the sky in Turkey Shoot. The Japanese lost and they know it and Guam is back in American hands.
From a tonnage standpoint, you are absolutely right. The subs did immeasurable strategic damage. The very reason the Japanese fleet conducted their advance into the Philippine sea the way they did, staying so far to the west, was that they had no oilers to bring fuel along with them. The subs had sunk over 20 oilers since May 1. They literally had only the fuel in their bunkers. They had to hope it was enough to get them all the way to the Inland Sea after the battle, because they had no other fuel.
Had a neighbor who was a supply officer on Big E. They would always go to general quarters when landing aircraft and his station was as gun captain on the twin 40mm, quad mounts on the stern (under the flight deck overhang). Most of his gun crews were Filipino mess-men (most with whom had some pretty limited English), as they watched the carrier's aircraft approach the deck above Denny heard the guys start to talk to each other in their pidgin English dialect, Denny got one to calm down enough to inform him that a Japanese Jill torpedo plane had just made an approach to the flight deck and taken a wave-off! Denny ran up the flight deck and the four Landing Signal Officers (paddles) has also seen it making a pretty good approach in the gathering dusk! He asked for permission to shoot it down when it made its next approach and received permission, when they spotted the torpedo bomber they waited till it was within spitting distance (Denny told me that between the 8, 40mm tubes under his control they fired less than 200 rounds total to get that guy! The plane guard destroyer fished the crew out of the water and interrogated the pilot to ensure that he was not trying to fly the unarmed torpedo plane into the carrier(s). It turns out that the pilot had less than 40 hours of total air-time (and a total of ONE carrier landing!), he followed the Avengers back to Enterprise (by mistake) and tried to land aboard (supposedly a better approach than many of the exhausted Enterprise pilots (some of whom has flow two sorties that day (including the strikes))!
What a legendary story! The enemy landing on our carrier DID happen in the Battle of the Coral Sea back in May 1942. 3 Japanese pilots tried to land aboard the USS Yorktown CV-5. Also coincidentally, the whole strike they were sent with jettisoned their torpedoes and bombs right over the USS Lexington (which was sunk in the battle, along with a destroyer and a tanker) and USS Yorktown since the enemy flyers didn’t see them at first.
@@DonWan47 they had been sent some new fuses for the torpedoes which were designed to run deep and use magnetic Xploderz under the Keel of the target. When they energized the WarHeads of the torps most of torpedoes 6 drop their weapons.
Hey man, just to let ya know they have started to drop new full episodes every week on Thursday nights. You can see the full Battle 360 episodes now 👍💯
It was late in the day when the Japanese fleet was located. The US planes reached their target at sunset with low fuel. Many planes did not make it back to the carriers. Twenty five percent of the pilots that started out were lost. The greatest achievement of the battle was the destruction of so many Japanese planes and loss of pilots. The Japanese could not replace them.
With Guam back in American hands we now have to defend it. Ozawa is coming and the mission of the Pacific Fleet was to find him and destroy him and they did. Launching at night the Pacific Fleet found Ozawa and put him and his ships under. A sub USS Cavalla along with the Flying Fish and Albacore found Shokaku and Taiho and torpedoed them and with that the Japanese Fleet was sunk and only The Yamamoto, Musashi, and the Zuikaku were left we would get them in the Philippines and in Iwo Jima.
1:56 Is that the Douglas SBD Dauntless? If so, those planes would have been successful bombing the enemy fleet. Remember the battle of midway? *Yes, that’s my reference*
The bomb missed but it was very close, meaning the shockwave from the explosion caused severe damage to the ship. May sound a little too good to be true but I think that's what he meant.
@@michaelperine2780 Yep and some of the Pacific D-Days naval invasions was just as big or bigger compared to the D-Day invasions in Europe like Okinawa, and Iwo Jima. Also some of these battles in the Pacific theater was just as intense and deadly especially for the Marines.
