Thanks. I didn't know anything about King. I like how you described his personality so we could get an idea about him. He was hated by many but he got the job done.

King was disliked by many politicians and the British for the same reason. He didn’t suffer pompous fools well. And didn’t hide it. He had great respect for some in the British Navy, but they tended to be the non pompous, hands on officers that actual understood being at sea.

He was tough and decisive, qualities which served him well for the most part. But he was also vindictive and held a grudge against some even when it wasn't deserved. For example, he didn't like Joseph Rochefort and refused to give him Rochefort and his team the credit they deserved for the victory at Midway. He also refused to accept British advice and assistance even when it would have beneficial. He didn't want the Royal Navy in the Pacific operating with the US fleet, and only accepted it grudgingly when Roosevelt forced him.

Excellent summation of the environment at the time of King's gamble. Am looking forward to the series. One little mistake. Saburo Sakai would not have fought the AVG while in China. Their first operational mission was 10 days after Pearl Harbor. The IJN was being deployed elsewhere and the IJA's "Nates" and "Oscars" would be the AVG's adversaries.

King was a terrible Admiral. Had his job because he was a friend of FDR.

In 1942 Operation Drumbeat sunk 500 ships along the U.S. Eastern Seaboard and exposed King’s failures of vision.

Literally everything on this channel is out of order. And badly described. And poorly narrated. You have to be into the texts, or it’s just a mess. I’m into the texts. FWIW.

I can't dispute or agree with what you say until I've listened to it. Unless you provide specifics, yes?
