Battle Scene from Gary Grigsby's Pacific War

Here is a small fraction of a battle from Gary Grigsby's Pacific War that demonstrates the damage a strong Kamikaze force can inflict on the Allies in the game. The period covered in the battle is 27 March 1945. The Allies have just successfully landed on Okinawa, but the base is still held by the Japanese. Eight CV's and five CVL's of 5th Fleet stand off Okinawa, but their air groups have been partially depleted by the previous week's attack plus their first strikes of this week's assault. The Japanese have marshaled their air forces and maintained training at reasonably good levels. Now the Japanese unleash their Kamikaze forces in a devastating attack that will ultimately sink multiple CV's, CVL's, CA's, and DD's. Beware the Ohka's..
