Horrible

Listening to a Midway special. Horrific trivia I didn't know: the Japanese took American pilots captured in the battle - one of them a Milwaukeean - bound them hand and foot, attached weights to them and dropped them overboard to drown. The rationale/explanation: they were 'angry at news of their defeat'.
