I don't think the sites been maintained in the last couple of years (based on the fact the home page button does not work) but the sub pages have great information, including the names of the Japanese pilots on each carrier!

Hope they'll get back to maintaining the site again. It's the most comprehensive collection of data I've seen on the web yet.

Hey, they fixed it. Looks nice now!
To me, this was an American 'Finest Hour'.
The US was still the underdog in terms of naval might and evemn though intelligence warned them of where and when the battle would be the outcome was not certain.
'Shattered Sword' is probably the best book I'm aware of on the subject.
I wonder if I can pull of a 75th Anniversary campaign for it in 3 years. Between aircraft and naval ships, would there be enough subject choices?
