    My grandfather was a gunner on the battleship USS Maryland in WWII. He was in the battle of Leyte Gulf as well as all the major Pacific battles. To hear him tell the story of Leyte Gulf it was horrible for those men. He was also at the last stand of the Japanese where he said the took on 3500 kamikaze attacks in 2 days.

      BUT The USS Maryland was not at the major carrier battles of Coral Sea, Midway, Battle of the Phillipine Sea nor any of the Guadalcanal battles. She was not fast enough to keep up with the carriers. SO not ALL major Pacific battles.
      In the battle of Leyte Gulf the USS Maryland was only at the battle of Surigao Straits which was a relatively minor engagement involving lots of US ships beating up on two ancient japanese battleships and a handful of cruisers.
      USS Maryland was a slow (21 knots) battleship with old guns and not update radar. Major battles include Tarawa, Kwajalein, Saipan, Surigao straits and Okinawa.

      The u.s. had broken most of their codes. Pearl was in Dec '41. In June '42 midway happened. Midway was an American decisive victory in which the kedo butai was destroyed. That's 4 Japanese aircraft carriers. And it was kind of luck or happenstance. Although America had better damage control, anyway, after that it was a battle of attrition in which America was going to win since no one could match their production power. At the beginning, the Japanese had a very formidable navy. At the end, there has been no greater navy and there never will be than the United states in September of '45.

      Agreed...as long as it's done right. Hollywood has a REAL bad habit of twisting things to suit their narrative, assigning people who have absolutely no idea about historical accuracy (i.e. Michael Bay; see "Pearl Harbor"), or who simply choose to cut out major pieces of the story (i.e. Roland Emmerich; see "Midway").
