Yukikaze, 1944-45: Defeat and the Obligations to History
This lecture is part of a larger biography of a WWII-era Japanese destroyer named Yukikaze, or Snowy Wind. Yukikaze fought at most of the major battles of the Pacific Theater, including Java Sea, Midway, Guadalcanal, and through the Solomon Islands, the Philippine Sea, Leyte, and Okinawa. In 1944, as Japan faced imminent defeat, the Imperial Navy made a series of tactical decisions that have puzzled military historians and strategists.
