S3 #123 I Have Returned (IHR)
Frame 1 Oct 20, 1944
Briefing:
Airmen,
The American Navy has foolishly let itself be divided.
Vice Admiral Ozawa has led the American carriers North, away from their invasion fleet East of Layte.
North of Layte, the IJN Center Force led by Vice Admiral Kurita steams Eastward to cut off the Invasion Force from the American Carriers.
Vice Admiral Nishimura’s Southern Force C is just South West of the Americans at Leyte Gulf.
We have them where we want them.
The American’s foolish bravado will be their undoing.
Airmen, it is vital that you stop the American invasion force. Sink the landing craft. Attack and sink their invasion fleet.
This may seem like a formidable task. But we have a secret weapon. A divine wind. Thousands of brave Japanese pilots have volunteered for the Special Attack Corps. You must protect these brave pilots so they may fulfill their mission. The spirit of the Special Attack Corps is the great spirit that runs in the blood of every Japanese.
Ganbatte kudasai. (Good luck)
Mission Objectives:
