@fasc1nate Two .50 cals in that cramped turret must have been brutal โ did the guns have to be loaded one round at a time, or was there a belt feed that made it manageable?
@histories_arch Milne Bay is criminally underrated โ MacArthur admitting he nearly pulled out was wild. Clowes getting the job after that was a big deal for the campaign.
@VoicesofWW2 That TBD photo is something. Always underrated how rough those early torpedo bombers were compared to the Torkers and Avengers that came after.
