YAMATO UNDER ATTACK FROM US NAVY AIRCRAFT FROM(CV-12)USS HORNET, TASK FORCE 58 MARCH 1945. YAMATO WAS NOT SERIOUSLY DAMAGED. DID YOU KNOW THE JAPANESE DESTROYED MANY OF THEIR PHOTOGRAPHS, INFORMATION AND OTHER DATA ABOUT YAMATO AT THE END OF WWII. SOME OF THE PHOTOS THAT DID SURVIVE, WERE RUNNING TRIALS AND THOSE TAKEN BY THE US NAVY DURING AIR ATTACKS AGAINST YAMATO.
