An Old Salt Picks His 4 Favorite American Admirals—and explains why (Part I)

Part One

Yeah
Would have been my choice too; Ray Spruance was the anti-Halsey, and this discussion pretty much lays it out, especially nicely eviscerating the critics who always found something retarded about ''HE SHOULD HAVE WON MOAR!!" :roll:
Just fuck off, the lot of you. He won every single time he faced the Japs, most times spectacularly so. Not the least of which at Midway. And I did not know that little detail at the Turkey Shoot. And it is the Little Details that make everything work.
A thinking Admiral would be my pick every single time, over a guy who's all balls and no forehead.
