“The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailers” has been on my reading list for a long time.
I recently read “Neptune’s Inferno.” Those Naval battles were incredibly intense. The Japanese were very good with their Destroyers at the outset.

Definitely! The Johnston and the Samuel B Robert’s fought like hell. “The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailers” has been on my reading list for a long time.
I have the book. My father was a navigator on a DE in the Pacific for all of the big battles and invasions. He never got into a gunfight with a battleship but they were in the middle of a lot of shite. He said he seriously did not think he would come home.
That was a different time with people of real courage.
