Was someone looking after us when the carriers were found at the last part of their flight? Imagine the determination that these men had with the odds against them all. They made it work and saved many others. What a feeling they had to experience at the end of the flight. The support crew on the USA carriers depended on these guys to complete their mission. Their lives depended on them. What teamwork never to be forgotten. Lifetime buddies that will never forget the ones they lost. Excellent presentation.

I don't know about the rest, but the voice you are claiming to be Kleats isn't him. I have seen Kleats be interviewed about this battle and your voice doesn't sound anything like him.

Hello! You're absolutely right; that is not Dusty Kleiss's voice. We used voice actors to read quotes from all of our World War II veterans in these videos because most of those veterans are no longer with us. We talk about that in the introduction video for each of our World War II series. Thanks for watching!
