When You Shouldn't Shoot A Kongo

W of Truk, January 1944

Now, I love sinking BB's as next as the next guy. So when I saw 2 BB's in their usual suicidal column formation, with only 2 dd's running cover, and with rough seas (lousy sonar weather), I took one down with my last 6 torpedoes. And sneaked away as if it was a routine kill.

But after seeing THIS following in the next TF approx. 15 min. behind.....

I still have the immortal words of Eric Cartman ringing in my ears.

GOD-D***it!!
