You learn something new every day...

Didn´t say anything the isn´t true. However, now that I have the chance, let me praise in the same way the rest of Doorman´s fleet; even though they were the clear underdogs, out-everything and with severe handicaps due to very different operational procedures between navies, they went in and fought the Nip to the very end.

Everyone in that doomed battle went down with colors flying and guns blazing.
