USS BENNINGTON vs YAMATO
Something that caught my eye… The way in which these letters were written were so rich in detail,
I could almost see the things he described as if I were there. These stories would make
for a great book, if not a short film on the subject of the letters alone. No Hollywood fiction thrown in, these are writings from people who were there and witnessed everything first hand.
