The Unauthorized History of the Pacific War

USS Hugh W. Hadley and USS Evans at Radar Picket Station 15-Episode 426

Listen Later
This week Seth and Bill take a look at one of the legendary stories of the kamikaze scourge during the Naval campaign for Okinawa--the saga of the destroyers USS Hugh W. Hadley and USS Evans and their support ships at Radar Picket Station 15. On May 11, 1945, the American ships at Radar Picket 15 endured an almost unbelievable attack by 156 Japanese kamikaze aircraft. In a story of courage, survival--and sheer guts--two American destroyers and their four support ships take on wave after wave of kamikaze and live to tell the tale. Tune in and hear this incredible story.
