The Battle at Savo Island (1942) was a disaster for the US Navy, the question is why did it happen? A common explanation was that the US Navy was just bad at night fighting, but this seems a rather simplistic if not outright wrong assumption according to current research. After a short intro that provides the necessary context Trent Hone - author of Learning War - and Justin Pyke will discuss the various reasons for this major defeat in US Navy History. • Disclaimer: I received a complimentary copy of Learning War from Naval Institute Press for content production. • Check out Trent’s Blog here: https://trenthone.com • Trent's Twitter: / honer_cut • Justin's Twitter: / cbi_pto_history • Cover design by vonKickass. • »» SUPPORT MHV «« • » patreon, see videos early (adfree) - / mhv • » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv • » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis • »» MERCHANDISE «« • » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military... • • » SOURCES « • Hone, Trent: Learning War – The Evolution of Fighting Doctrine in the U.S. Navy, 1898-1945.
