RE: The ship that refused to die!
No problem, glad you enjoyed it. Some stories are above nationality.
I have read of a suicide torpedo operator, that gave me a real view of the mindset of the Japanese in WWII. Very impressive Man, doing a difficult Job.
Another story was a Pilot who was an outsider; who ended up in the most advanced plane of the war, and was fighting for the Germans.
Exceptional people in tough times, rise to the top :)
Sounds like you have been researching a lot of interesting people. I would definitely say that being a suicide torpedo operator would be a "difficult job."
Hello, yes they were real Men, doing Hard jobs! Interesting viewpoints, I find it important to read things from both sides to understand the course of the war. There were terrible, and amazing things that combined to resolve the conflict.
I don't think I would like the job of steering a torpedo.
:)Poor retirement plan, for sure....
