Commander Fuchida's account of the events aboard the IJN flagship at Midway have been proven false by WWII historian Pearsall, who obtained copies of records of the times of launched and landings which show big differences. Japanese veterans also agree Fuchida wrote a misleading timeline that covered up a number of errors in flight ops. What is the source of this information?

Admiral Yamamoto was an overrated Admiral who participated in the planning of the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Only to lose 4 Japanese Aircraft Carriers in one day at the Battle of Midway, 6 months later. The plan for Pearl Harbor was to destroy American Aircraft Carriers. Which the Japanese failed to do.

It is my understanding that Japanese wanted to declare war an hour or two before the attack, but the decoding of the final authorization was done by someone higher up who was too slow at it. So, it turned into a sucker punch which they deservedly paid for. I doubt the IJN would have been involved in this 'diplomacy' and so planned their attack as a surprise, which it turned out to be after all.

No carriers hit or sunk at Pearl Harbor was a disastrous mistake, for the Japanese imperial navy carrier fleet in the Pacific had to be taken out had to be caught in pearl and destroyed why it just happened to be at C maybe the truth will never be known but this is one mistake that will be beneficial and costing the Japanesethe Pacific campaign

What was interesting was that the Japanese never ask even once why (the reason was the US sold them fuel and was determined to not do so after Nanking) and they were just that is the job so let’s do it. On the AI voice read, you may want to have it read about 20 minutes or 25 at most and then use audacity to stick them into a full sized episode.

Small minds couldn't handle the big picture. Pretty much the same today. History is a long big picture, that's hard for small minds to handle. 🌍✌️🌎

Very well done video, really enjoyed it. Just one small thing for future reference, Genda is pronounced with a hard "G", not Jenda. Thank you and keep up the good work.

For many years the Navy had been screaming that it wanted a replacement battleship, the Iowa class in addition to their copies of zeppelins to scout with their housed planes they could launch. I think Congress basically told them you don't get to have both toys we have a depression for God's sake. Besides now that you have your two zeppelins you can scout vast areas far beyond what any other nations Navy can do. So the Japanese Navy was really doing the US Navy a favor in the sense that suddenly Congress came up with that money for the Iowa class immediately after Pearl harbor. The Navy crashing and destroying accidentally both of these airships is probably what made the Japanese traveling to the Hawaiian Islands undetected possible.
