#05 - Mission Beyond Darkness: The Phillippine Sea [WWII]
America and the Imperial Japanese Empire clash in the Philippine Sea in June 1944. Admiral Jisaburo Ozawa leads an attack on the American Fleet in the Philippine Sea only to have the tables turned by Task Force 58. Japan suffers a blow that it cannot recover from.
Written by: Sean Michael Chick
Edits and Corrections: Taiho did not sink on an even keel. Taiho lurched to port and slid under on her side. Truk was attacked by carrier, not land-based aircraft, in 1944.
