They had already delivered the components and were enroute to Australia(?) with no escort.

Correct...one of the main reason they gave him a GCM.

Believe Capt McVay committed suicide in the ‘60s....
Bringing in the Japanese Sub Commander was a cheap shot and unprecedented.

Talk about being ‘judged’ by people who had absolutely no clue as to what you had been through....

There was a Tommy Lee Jones/Samuel L. Jackson movie that used the same scenario of the Govt calling in a ‘Foreign’ CO at an American GCM.....

At the end they portrayed the ‘Enemy’ as looking remorseful and saluting his former ‘Enemy’.
I took that as a ‘Sorry about that BUT....’
