73 Years ago today

Admiral Yamamoto's prediction came that he would run rampant across the Pacific for 6 months came to pass as the crews of Enterprise, Yorktown and Hornet, assisted by the defenders based on Midway Island delivered the first installment of payback.

A tall frosty one to them, and a moment of silence for those that did not come back, in particular Torpedo 8.
