      Thanks Steve! Midway is in the works. I'm almost done with the first episode, but I'm playing around with 3D scenes to enhance the documentary - hence the delay. Will be worth it, hopefully!

    I like the graphics you use. I find them clear, and you identify ships and if they survive or not. The commenter voice is is clear and excellent pronunciation of Japanese names/ships. Finally the music does not over whelm the commentary.
    Great story telling.

    Not the first Japanese invasion to be thwarted, "Wake Island" the Corral sea battles however highlighted the then unknown Chaos' theory "Butterfly Syndrome", Corral Sea & all events associated were the all important Nexis of all that occurs at Midway

    The reason Crace was detached to sail separately because he was of senior to Fitch and equivalent or above Fletchers rank.
    The USN (under Admiral King) was determined that no US aircraft carrier would end up in a position where it could be under the command of the RN or RAN or US Army. Crace of senior experience, though not with carrier operations.
    Crace had been in charge of the Australia Station since late October 1939 but lacked ships because most the RAN was overseas. The only action he had come close to was in following up HMAS Sydney’s sinking in 1941 off WA.
    Despite being at war for 32 months by this date his only combat experience so far was from WW1. He was keen to press attack upon the enemy and had tried to transfer to get into battle.
    This may have been seen as too aggressive to be given command of aircraft carriers.
    The USN considered their carriers as not there to defend Australia, rather they were there to stop the Japanese where they could without unnecessary losses.
    There was considerable risk taken to detach the carriers from the defence of Hawaii and the US west coast. The US public were overly paranoid of the Japanese attacking California. No one outside the USN would command a USN carrier.
    Crace was the right man to command a detached cruiser force and had already worked hard to integrate with American ships placed under him so that they could correctly work together. He built a positive working relationship with captain Bode of the USS Chicago who was noted to be very difficult to work with by other USN officers.
    After Coral Sea Crutchley would replace Crace, who struggled more with Bode. HMAS Canberra replaced HMAS Australia. Communications from there were not as sound with Bode. This factor contributed to the defeat at Savo Island where both ships were sunk that August.

      Thanks for this. Incredibly interesting, while my books were a bit more nuanced and skirting around the topic, the USN reasoning makes sense.

      @louishermann7676 what I'm saying is it was a clown show that both sides learned from. I'll be at the United States more so did the Japanese. Same token. You are right, it was the first carrier on carrier battle so a lot had to be learned.
      Realistically though this was a battle between a gluttonous and a blind opponent.

    I've watched many animated WWII engagements at sea now, say, between 1941 and 1945, did any US torpedo ever
    1. hit a target and
    2. actually go off ?
