    Excellent summary sir. Thank you. I'd just like to point out the photo that comes up around 35.50. This is the arrival of the group at Guadalcanal and the attack by the G4m Betty bombers (carrying torpedoes). The smoking ship in the middle distance is USS San Francisco, which has just been hit in the aft superstructure by one of the bombers I believe after it dropped its torpedo. The smoke between the transport and the cruiser is the remains of that aircraft. A sailor, Reinhardt Keppler, received the medal of honour for his actions during the bomber crash and during the coming night battle.

    Sound quality was bad. Made it hard to understand what he was saying sometimes.

      Agreed. Playback volume was pretty low, and Trent either needed to have his mic volume up or he needed to just speak more loudly (he tends to trail off in many places and devolve to almost a mumble.) I had to turn my YT player volume up to max and it was still a bit quiet.

      Need better mic and work on not trailing off.

      Never came back to the written question from the guy whose sound was REALLY bad, though he did seem to be just babbling.

      Yep, just use a plug in microphone. They are cheap.

    From all I have read and learned over the years/decades- it seems that only Jim Hornfischer gave Adm Callaghan any credit for his actions. Jim was the first one who explained the sense on closing on the enemy fleet and not attacking at greater range using radar. Jim explained/taught that by getting close the 8" guns were much more effective against a BB

      I listened to the Audio book of Neptune's Inferno. Did Hornfischer cite a source for his knowledge of Callaghan's battle plan? Or was he retroactively providing him one?

      @@UmHmm328 In the video it is clearly stated that there is no testimonial or written evidence of Callaghan's battle plan.

    Mikawa's decision not to attack 'canal transports influenced by false reports that air attacks from Aug 7-8 had seriously damaged allied transports

    In talking about what the US knew about the Type 93 Parshall (I think) mentioned a picture of a torpedo on a Guadalcanal beach, which may be the one I believe I recently saw in the "Night Battle: The Barroom Brawl Off Guadalcanal" article by David Alan Johnson on the Warfare History Network site, where I believe it was identified as a submarine-launched torpedo, i.e., not a 90 or a 93. I'd give the link, but UA-cam seems to eat comments with links in them. But searching on the article title turns it right up. And I can't confirm my memory as I was able to look at it once earlier today, but WHN seems to have now put it behind a paywall. Maybe I exceeded my free article limit.

    John you hurt Randys feelings. He was talking about his torpedoes and you called it a rabbitt hole.

    Operation Watchtower was known as Operation Shoestring by those assigned to it.

    Seems American admirals were seriously concerned with friendly fire so why couldnt we come up with a solution? Did Japanese or Great Britain suffer their own ff issues. Back to ff concerns of American leaders how do you explain so many hits on USS Atlanta
