Congressman Andrew May (D) Kentucky.
During WWII he received a top secret briefing about how the Japanese were setting their depth charges too shallow to sink our submarines.
So he has a press conference and brags about it, the Japanese adjust their settings and we lost at least 10 submarines and their crews.
Too bad they put a fool in charge.
I would have broadcasted shallow depth charges were causing great loses to our submarine fleet.
