I'll bump it again, because it IS a good idea!
This is some action that could develop from it...
USS Laffey, Buchanon class DD, along with 3 other DD's, passed thru the Japanese Bombardment force off Guadalcanal, (0004hrs Friday the 13th).. Both sides were blundering around in the dark, thru intermittent hard rain squalls, knowing the other was there.. But American inexperience w their radar, (and reflections from the rain squalls), couldn't fix the Japanese position.. When the Japs finally turned on their searchlights, USS Laffey was passing the bow of Kirishima at (witnesses say at 50ft range!!!)..
Laffey launched torps, and raked Hiei with 5in fire, killing the commanding Jap admiral and many of his staff on the bridge! Then was hit by a 14inch shell, and a 24in torp... Her stern magazine exploded, blowing off the after 1/3 of the ship...
Another "Hero ship" of the US Navy!!!
