My grandfather was a gunner on the battleship USS Maryland in WWII. He was in the battle of Leyte Gulf as well as all the major Pacific battles. To hear him tell the story of Leyte Gulf it was horrible for those men. He was also at the last stand of the Japanese where he said the took on 3500 kamikaze attacks in 2 days.

[@yeaboi3623]

Thank u for your grandfather's service!

[@raymondsullivan7474]

My grandfather was on board one of the landing craft during that battle , he never talked about it, the only reason I know is because of his service record and researching his ships movements after he died.

[@borisjohnsonslostcomb7457]

How'd he know it was 3500? Not being smart just curious, I'm fascinated by war and love to hear stories from those involved, much respect to you grandfather for being there in those times, I for one appreciate even the limited freedoms we have here in the U.S. cuz I know it's not like this elsewhere

[@briananderson8733]

Thank your grandfathers service to his country.
BUT The USS Maryland was not at the major carrier battles of Coral Sea, Midway, Battle of the Phillipine Sea nor any of the Guadalcanal battles. She was not fast enough to keep up with the carriers. SO not ALL major Pacific battles.
In the battle of Leyte Gulf the USS Maryland was only at the battle of Surigao Straits which was a relatively minor engagement involving lots of US ships beating up on two ancient japanese battleships and a handful of cruisers.
USS Maryland was a slow (21 knots) battleship with old guns and not update radar. Major battles include Tarawa, Kwajalein, Saipan, Surigao straits and Okinawa.

The u.s. had broken most of their codes. Pearl was in Dec '41. In June '42 midway happened. Midway was an American decisive victory in which the kedo butai was destroyed. That's 4 Japanese aircraft carriers. And it was kind of luck or happenstance. Although America had better damage control, anyway, after that it was a battle of attrition in which America was going to win since no one could match their production power. At the beginning, the Japanese had a very formidable navy. At the end, there has been no greater navy and there never will be than the United states in September of '45.

I've become fascinated with animated battle maps. It makes battles much easier to get the mind around. This was good enough for me to basically understand the battle, but gives little in the way of directions and spatial bearings. Constructive criticism only, and thanks for the knowledge. I look forward to exploring your channel.

You guys need to work on having a consistent visual medium throughout the length of your videos. It can get confusing or just be generally off-putting.

[@rjfant]

DayBot, I get what you’re saying and I don’t mean to imply that they should get ever meticulous detail down I just mean that the art that is used would be better if it was a matching medium. For example if you have a family guy art style next to a rick and morty style it’s off putting in that they are distinctly different.

[@Nugcon]

The constantly changing art-style just screams laziness and reused assets. Don't get me wrong, reusing your assets isn't necessarily bad thing but if it affects the quality of the video it is.
