  • @samuelschick8813
    @samuelschick8813 Před rokem +13

    Few minor corrections about the U.S.S. Johnston part. First a 5 inch gun is not a 5" gun turret, it is a 5" gun mount. The second, the "colored dye" fired by the Japanese ships was not for range finding. Each ship had a specific color assigned to it. The reason was so each ship could see where their shells hit and not be confused with other ships rounds.
    For example Kongo was Yellow, Haruna was Green, Yamato Red and Nagato Orange.
    For the Iowa class battleships the color codes for AP rounds were:
    USS Iowa - Orange
    USS New Jersey - Blue
    USS Missouri - Red
    USS Wisconsin - Green

There were 100+ enemy attacking a small U.S. site, w/ a hospital of 400+ injured and medical persons on the other side of a small hill that was the target. His crew got to the site which was a squad or so, making the U.S. forces out numbered by at least 5 to 1. The soldier, who's name I don't remember was manning the M-2, .50 cal. for over a half an hour before his gun fell silent. Yet, he and the rest of the men were able to hold the enemy off long enough for air support to arrive. When they examined his body, they fond 13+ bullet holes in his body. He stayed w/ his gun even after being injured time and time again, and the only thing he asked for was for more ammunition. They save all those lives. He told his family that he would either walk off the transport returning him home or be carried off. He was awarded the Metal of Honor. I am sorry that I don't not know the name of that fallen hero, yet I do know of what he did.

    I read "The Last Stand of the Tin Can Sailors" about the Taffy 3 and the Johnson. What a harrowing tale! Those guys, all of them, were some of the most courageous fighters in all of the war. They turned back a vastly larger force and almost certainly saved thousands of soldiers' lives, maybe tens of thousands. I'm so glad you included this battle.
    All the attention and resources spent on the Tirpitz has always seemed a little pointless to me. Since it was sitting idle in a fjord in Norway for years, why not just let it sit there and then get it when it tried to exit the fjord?
    Really great video. The only suggestion I would have for this type of video is to just give us a bit of a pause between each segment.

    • @Aragorn195
      @Aragorn195 Před rokem +1

      They can't just sit off coast and wait for it to move, they'd be targetted by subs. Tirpitz did actually take part of one offensive action, Unternehmen Zintronella, or Operation Lemon Flavor in English. Yes that was the name. Still not as bad as American bombing Operation Chattanooga Choo-Choo. Furthermore the English had to have a significant naval force for the purpose of containing the Tirpitz, which if Tirpitz was sunk could be used elsewhere. All of this while not being aware of Hitlers order to keep the Tirpitz in safe waters. Therefor it was paramount to sink the Tirpitz. It's also a major moral and propaganda victory

    • @jimwolaver9375
      @jimwolaver9375 Před 11 měsíci

      As long as Tirpitz was there and able to leave the fjord, the allies had to keep superior forces in the area in case she did try to leave. That meant that two battleships (plus the necessary escorts) had to be kept in the North sea instead of being available to do... anything else. Just the cost of operating the necessary opposition was expensive. Kill Tirpitz, save money, time, lives, etc. To see more on the damage a German battleship could do without firing a shot, see the story of PQ-17.

      She was a “fleet in being”.
      The North Sea has some of the worst weather in the world, rivaled only by the Aleutian Sea on the Pacific Coast. She was a threat to any supply convoy headed to Murmansk. If she left Norway without detection she could decimate a convoy, particularly after the convoy was hit by Luftwaffe air attacks and U-Boots.

    YARNHUB pls pls pls pls make a video on the battle of opium hill, for context
    The battle of Opium Hill took place on 14 February 1942 during the Japanese invasion of Singapore.1 Part of the wider battle for Pasir Panjang, the battle of Opium Hill is remembered for the heroic last stand of 2nd Lieutenant Adnan Saidi and the soldiers from C Company of the Malay Regiment’s 1st Battalion, against the 18th Division of the Imperial Japanese Army (IJA).2 Today, a WWII interpretive centre named Reflections at Bukit Chandu stands near the battle site to commemorate the heroism of the Malay Regiment.3
    Background
    Opium Hill, or Bukit Chandu in Malay, stands on Pasir Panjang Ridge (now Kent Ridge) and derives its name from the opium-processing factory located at the foot of the hill.4 During the closing stages of the Battle of Singapore, the entire ridge formed part of the western end of the final British defence perimeter around Singapore.5 The ridge also protected the Alexandra area, where the British Military Hospital (now Alexandra Hospital) and vital British ammunition depots were located.6
    The Malay Regiment, with 1,400 men in its 1st and 2nd Battalions, was responsible for defending the Pasir Panjang Ridge.7 The 2nd Battalion defended the area between Ayer Rajah Road and the Gap (South Buona Vista Road),8 with A and C Companies of 1st Battalion guarding its left flank along the length of Reformatory Road.9 The 2nd Loyal Regiment, a British formation, was deployed to guard the 2nd Battalion’s right flank.10
    Battle of Pasir Panjang
    On the morning of 13 February, the battle for Pasir Panjang commenced with an intense Japanese aerial and artillery bombardment of the Malay Regiment’s positions, inflicting heavy casualties and disrupting telephone communications.11 The 1st Battalion’s A Company was decimated by accurate Japanese artillery fire and was forced to withdraw from its advance positions.12 In the afternoon, the Japanese 18th Division, supported by mortars, tanks and aircraft,13 attacked the 2nd Battalion at Point 270 on Buona Vista Hill along the Pasir Panjang Ridge.14 Critically short of ammunition, the 2nd Battalion was forced to yield Point 270 and retreated through the Gap.15 The loss of Point 270 gave the IJA control over the western side of the ridge, exposing the right flank of C Company at Pasir Panjang Village to Japanese enfilade fire.16
    Despite being outnumbered and outflanked, C Company held the Pasir Panjang Village crossroads against Japanese attacks, strengthened by the remaining soldiers of A Company and two Bren carriers of the Loyal Regiment.17 Unable to advance, the Japanese set fire to the nearby undergrowth and set up a mortar position to bombard the Malay Regiment defenders.18 Private Yaacob bin Bidin of C Company crawled through the burning undergrowth to eliminate this Japanese mortar team with his light machine gun.19 Private Yaacob survived the war and was later awarded the Military Medal by the British for his bravery.20
    The battles on 13 February exacted a severe toll on the 1st Battalion, with four officers reported killed and eight wounded along with a “considerable” number of casualties from other ranks.21 The much-depleted 2nd Battalion became a brigade reserve and moved to Alexandra Brickworks, taking no further part in the battle.22
    By midnight on 13 February, the 1st Battalion withdrew to reconsolidate its defence.23 C Company left Pasir Panjang Village to take up a new defensive position at Opium Hill on the Pasir Panjang Ridge.24 To its left, B Company was deployed to cover the approaches to Buona Vista Village, while D Company held the Labrador area on the right flank of C Company.25 C and D Companies were separated by a drain of burning oil that flowed from the nearby Normanton Oil Depot,26 whose storage tanks had been set ablaze on 10 February 1942 by enemy action.27

    The usual practice in naval battles was to have the larger warship in the lead. But the Bismarck radar was damaged when the Bismarck had earlier fired on two British heavy cruisers following it. So the shorter Prinez Eurgen took the lead. This threw of the range calculator and the British salvos over shot the German warships in the beginning of the battle.

  • @CharlesMB
    @CharlesMB Před 5 měsíci +1

    The first wave with all cannons shot by the Bismarck actually damaged it´s own main aim radar ; then the infrastructural damages destroyed it´s emergency aim radar, so the cannons were obligated to aim manually and independant from one another, so many were misshotting.

    The mini-subs that strike the Tirpitz are destroyed her so bad that she can´t sail again.
    The british officers inform the germans at this time to save lifes.
    The first US-destroyer that sunk in Taffy 3 broke in two before it sunk.
    They found the wreck of it and after the first torpdeo luncher is no ship.

    Down through the years, people have groped for words with which to describe the incredible courage that enabled the tin cans of Taffy 3 to chase off a force of battlewagons led by the mightiest battleship of them all.
    Lately, I think I found four good ones:
    "Honey badger don't care."
    The honey badger is the African cousin of the North American wolverine. Both are renowned for being, pound for pound, two of the most ferocious creatures on Earth, furry balls of fury that are dreaded by beasts many times their size and weight. Honey badgers have been known to fight entire prides of lions -- and if they fail to kill them all before themselvea succumbing, it's not for lack of trying.
    The Yamato alone weighed more than all of Task Force Taffy 3's ships put togethet. This didn't deter Taffy 3's tin cans from fighting so fiercely that the Yamato's crew honestly thought USS Johnston was a cruiser. But then, she might as well have been. Honey badger don't care.
