About five hours ago oceanic archeologist Robert Ballard discovered the main wreck site of Japanese carrier Kaga sunk during WWII at The Battle of Midway. He's reported that he's found new evidence suggesting that the basic design of the ship may have turned the tide of the battle in an unexpected way, but that further details will come down the pipeline soon. Keep an eye out here for more information as it comes.

That man has been a real inspiration in my life, I've read up so much on his many amazing finds, such as the Titanic and the Bismark, and I am so glad to hear of this.

"He's reported that he's found new evidence suggesting that the basic design of the ship may have turned the tide of the battle in an unexpected way..."
I wonder if any of these design flaws stem from the fact that she was converted from a BB?

Isn't the depth the Kaga lies at a playing factor in why it would be hard to piece any hard evidence on why or why not anything may have come of it's design... That and 04-04-12, only problem with that is it was posted after 12pm GMT which makes klag the fool

A real good one, April Fools is a day I often forget about, much to any joker's delight.
