"Tenno Heika Banzai (天皇陛下萬歲)!"

"Lower in means, power, number, but not of courage, the extraordinary Pilots of the Rising Sun, as ancient Samurai, pass through the fire wall raised by the Americans to stop them.

Targeted by enemy fighters and powerful flak, attacked from all directions, on their slow and fragile aircraft, these heroes of the Rising Sun do not stop and, in defiance of life, reach and devastate the American Carrier Essex. "

Only narrowly the U.S. Carrier does not sink but its hull is devastated and the speed reduced.

20 powerful American planes destroyed on deck by bombs of Japanese Pilots :
9 SBD-5
4 F4U-1D Corsair
7 P-47D-22 Thunderbolt

Emperor Showa (Hirohito) 昭和天皇
The Emperor brings his gratitude to these brave Samurai, publicly exposing the canvas showing the Emperor Kameyama sacrifice to avert the invasion of the country.

The USS Essex is a tough lady, she won't give up so easily.

Damage Control Teams are working very hard to put out the fires and clean the deck from debris to make her operational again as quickly as possible.

We promise you that the "Instrument of Surrender" will be signed on board the USS Essex :P

Very well executed attack gentlemen :)

Salute!
