However, since the Japanese couldn't see any way of keeping the US from getting involved if they descended on British and Dutch colonies they went ahead and including knocking out the U.S. Pacific Fleet on their war plans. A poor move if Yamamoto endorsed doing it. But then I always thought he was overrated anyway.

It would have been interesting if Yamamoto had lost out to the "old guard" of the IJN and they used Battleships to attack PH
. If i recall, the Yamato was brand new. She would have eaten our fleet for lunch (and want seconds).
On a side note, I wish somebody would make a movie about the midget subs there.
That has always been my favorite aspect of PH.
