Ah yes, edsall. Famous for annoying the japanese to the point that when she was sunk they executed the survivors.

Just looked at the story of the Edsall sinking and... holy crap. Two battleships and two heavy cruisers firing 1,400 rounds over the course of 2-and-a-half hours just to take down a tiny little destroyer! In fact, Edsall didn't take any critical hits until the gunners said, "F--- it!" and asked Akagi and Soryuu to get their dive bombers over there.

Wow, so the 1st and 2nd Car Div killed Langley, The Mother of all US Carriers.

Killing Lexington, the eldest sister made it worse.

No wonder Midway was a bloodbath especially for Enterprise.
