In the coverage of the loss of the Yorktown was there anything about the sinking of the Hammann.? There are good real time film of the event and the destroyer sank in four minutes and its depth charges exploded adding to the casualties of the crew who had gone over the side.

They didn’t show the sinking of the Yorktown and Hammann. Once it was hit it dropped out of the picture.
