Great video, David @kahu
Thanks for posting this, David.
A great highlights reel of some excellent footage. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone, you are welcome. The fire damage is something to behold, so to is how the torpedo explosion has peeled the hull plating away. That .50cal machine gun that is located on the very tip of the flight deck on the left side of ship that they linger on, in the photo above you can see it as the ship lists.
They talk about the airplanes on the hanger deck, found one I had downloaded. This is probably the last photo of a TBD-1 Devastator taken aboard Yorktown just before they dumped the plane overboard.
