To: Come And Take It
Great read..thanks...what's curious is what the author might have added at the end..that American pilots successfully intercepted and killed Yamamoto later on in the war, a measure that probably did much to contribute to Japan's loss, and probably helped save thousands of Americans......Sadam..are you listening?

How did we know where and when to intercept and shoot down Yamamoto? The Pacific ocean is a big body of water and a plane is a small thing flying over it.

Yamamoto was killed April 18, 1943.
