I love how he describes Americans running out of ammunition as: "hilariously unlikely"

Great video and discussion. Retired American Coast Guardsman here. Please don’t forget my services contributions in your discussions. Coast Guard Cutter Taney WPG-37 was moored at pier 6 Honolulu harbor and had her AA guns manned and returning fire on the attacking planes in 4 minutes. She, along with the rest of the service, served with valor throughout the rest of the war and always has. Semper Paratus!

I only found out about Armchaor Admirals from the Timeghost history post they did when it was.streamed. I have gone back and listened to them all now mulitple times, especiallyas I work.

I wanted to say thank you for this content. I have learned more about these specific events than I knew before. I have enjoyed this content immensely.

One of the greatest parts of this was watching Spartacus' reaction to Indy's rant about the "Pearl Harbor Conspiracy" concepts...
Spartacus covers some sickeningly horrible topics on the TimeGhost/ WW2 channel so to see him smiling and laughing while Indy Hulks out was fantastic.

Indy’s Churchill impression sounds like emperor palpatine.

Here's the thing, Oklahoma was raised, but it sank again on the way to San Francisco for repairs (the objective of the repairs in Pearl was to get the ships sea worthy again and get them to the mainland to finish repairs. (Hence why the wreck in the Oklahoma is not in Pearl Harbor, but about halfway between Hawaii and California.)

I noticed on the battleship bomb and torpedo hit graphic, the Tennessee and California use their post-Pearl Harbor rebuilding silhouettes, while the Maryland and West Virginia are using their pre-Pearl Harbor silhouettes, when prior to the attack, all four ships had almost identical silhouettes, and after the post-attack rebuilding, Tennessee, California, and West Virginia had almost identical silhouettes. The only easily distinguishable differences between the two classes was the number of main guns in the turrets, which are not visible in silhouette.

Another awesome round of history and with new guests as well! Very informative and also I liked the questions from the gamers: well thought out and pertinent. I ALWAYS wondered why, where, and what the US carriers were up to in this time frame, little realizing I was placing them as "capital ships" before they were actually thus.

Indy, Sparty and Daddy Drach? Someone must be happy with me!

[hannahskipper]

Wahoo!! I've already started drenching myself in Pearl Harbor History. This will be an epic 9 days.

[AlphaWolfShadow]

Indy's historical conspiracy theory aneurysm spree gives me both the giggles and hope that brains in people of today aren't all dead. Love it, and all of you guys ❤

[Death_Korps_Officer]

A Sabaton History/Time Ghost crossover with WoWs Team? Perfection!

[scootergsp]

Oh, I so hope that they record that D&D game and post it to YouTube! It will epic!

[Xanderfoof]

Jingles with a US Coast Guard shirt and cats is a total Win!!

[Pienimusta]

Sadly IJN didn't have armor piercing rocket planes.

Tora Tora is really good movie about moments before the attack.
