Abstract
April 1945: the aftermath of the battle for Okinawa. Tommy stands on the deck of the USS Bataan, the Independence-class aircraft carrier he's called home for a year and, like everyone and everything else, he's utterly changed. A lieutenant commander and expert navigator, he's long understood the horrors, the toll of this war. And now, Ten-Go: almost another three dozen vessels sent to their watery grave; 368 others damaged from the air. The numbers could have been worse; his math, as always, had been correct.
