Why the Carrier Gets Too Much Credit for Beating Japan: My Argument for the Submarine
from The U.S. Navy History Podcast · host Dale Robertson
In this solo personal essay, Dale argues that American submarines — not the aircraft carriers — won the Pacific War against Japan. It's one sailor, one opinion: the carriers won the headlines at Midway, but the boats did the killing, sinking over half of Japan's fleet and strangling the oil that the Yamato and the whole empire ran on. From the Shinano to Archerfish to Nimitz himself. Come agree, or come fight him about it.https://discord.gg/fC5EJDR
