Title
WW2, Pacific War
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- This web site started as a tribute to Admiral Frank Jack Fletcher, a hometown boy. The site then expanded into "Little known facts" and "Attacks on the US mainland". It was then recognized that later generations might not understand the conditions of 1941-42. Most media presentations about WW2 are concerned with the victorious end of the war. Conditions were far different at the beginning. There was horse cavalry, biplanes, bolt action Springfield rifles, and sea search that depended upon a seaman's eye. The staples of war movies - Corsairs, PPI radar, proximity shells, and Essex class aircraft carriers simply did not exist in 1942.
