The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Researchers Mark Death of Pearl Harbor Mastermind Yamamoto
From the April 11, 2018, Fox News by Chris Carola, AP.
A group of U.S. and Japanese researchers have gone to a site in Papua New Guinea where U.S. fighters shot down a Japanese bomber carrying Yamamoto, who is credited with planning and executing the attack on Pearl Harbor.
U.S. codebreakers learned of his planned route for a tour of Japanese bases in the Solomon Islands.
He was shot down April 18, 1943, 75 years ago today.
