Naval History Podcast: Inside Mitscher’s Battle of Midway Cover-up
Published 3 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
At the Battle of Midway in June 1942, the Hornet air group flew the wrong way, and a falsified after-action report by Captain Marc Mitscher helped to cover up the mistake. Host Emily Abdow talks with author Ronald Russell about his article, “Mitscher at Midway,” the cover story in the June issue of Naval History.
