We scheduled a DoDLive Bloggers Roundtable with World War II Navy Cross recipient and fighter ace William E. "Bill" Davis for Wednesday, Dec. 8.
Davis shared details of his October 1944 bombing attack that sunk the Japanese aircraft carrier Zuikaku. The Zuikaku held a special place in the minds of a Navy pilot in 1944. She was the last remaining aircraft carrier that participated in the attack on Pearl Harbor. Bills bombing run nearly cost him his life but he and his men sunk her, and, militarily, the closure for Pearl Harbor was now complete.
