They really need to do something about the overly sensitive "naughty word corrector" I am getting tired of foreign names getting blocked that are not even close to any foul word.Or what ever is causing that.

If I attempt to post the Japanese spelling it gets blocked.

Sh***333;kaku

Taih***333;

I guess the software does not like non English spelling it hates the Japanese ***333;

It was more of an air battle being known as the "Great Marianas Turkey Shoot" do to the decimation of the IJN flying corps by the US Navy pilots.
Oh I know all about the Turkey Shoot - F6F's had a ball shooting japs to hell.

I'm going to say that this fictional crew sank the Shokaku - then were attacked by destroyers.
