One incident happened in the South Pacific. An American Squadron attack a Japanese merchant ship fleet with all 4 ships being sunk. But because the Japanese interceptors manage to down some of the American planes, PBY Catalinas were called for a pick-up mission. When they arrives, they were greet with a sight of more than thousands corpses floating around the wrecks. Far beyond the regular amount of sailors on-board those ships. Turns out 2 of the 4 ships were carrying a British, Indian, Filipinos and even American POW for fortification labor. All of them are death, blast to bits when the ammunition on the ships explode or being burned to death afterward. The entire Filipinos battalion died that day.

[@Pagan20-08]

I remember reading in a book by Peter Fitzsimons that a Japanese merchant ship was carrying Australian POWs when it was torpedoed by an American submarine, of course the American sub crew probably had no idea it was carrying POWs and thought it was just a normal freighter

AtOthenewbkillahMe too. The intensity is very well made in that level. And here`s something that i just thought of.Why not have enough crew to man every turret at the same time instead of only two gunners that has to switch position all the time?

[@ColonelEagle]

***** My guess is that they couldn't spare the man power. This is WWII we're talking about.

[@Mrstealth93]

AtOthenewbkillah Sounds possible.

[@thisisbadstuff]

***** It's mainly more because the developers wanted to give the player more variety in this mission. Imagine if you had to stay in any one of the positions during this entire mission. United Offensive had a more realistic approach: having you fill the other positions when the other gunners got taken out one by one.

[@Mrstealth93]

7:00 is probably one of the best ways to use music in this game, it builds up as the situation tenses, as death seems more and more inevitable.

You forgot the merchant ships he destroyed

[@LocalTofuSeller]

Well, in reality it's very much possible. The Plane he was on was a heavily modified PBY-5 Catalina. Nicknamed "The Black cat" or the Catalina black cat. The original PBY only has 30 cal on sides and front and light armor. Meanwhile Catalina as shown. Has an automatic 20mm cannon on the front and 50 cals on the side. They are armed to the teeth and has more durability than normal PBY-5. So 2 of this with experience pilot and crew can do what the Black cat mantaray 54 and hammerhead do.

[@gilbertk918]

This mission is actually a combination of two missions I believe of the real VPB-34 Black Cats squadron in the pacific. Mission(s) 1: “31 Dec 1943-22 Jan 1944: Lieutenant Commander Thomas A. Christopher, the squadron commanding of-ficer, set the pace for VP-34 operations in the Bismarck Sea area of operations. On 31 December 1944 he attacked and damaged one enemy vessel during a night patrol. On 22 January 1944 he again attacked and damaged an enemy vessel at night, receiving damage from heavy A fire resulting in injury to one crewmember. For his leadership in seeking out the enemy and pressing home the attack under heavy fire Lieutenant Commander Christopher was awarded the Navy Cross. On 15 January 1944 Christopher led a five-aircraft attack on a strongly escorted enemy convoy attempting to cross the straits. He made a mast-head attack at extremely close range and personally accounted for one 6,800-ton merchantman, while the remainder of the flight destroyed two more. For this action Lieutenant Commander Christopher was awarded a Gold Star in lieu of a second Navy Cross.” Mission 2: 3 Dec 1944 At 0013 hours, Cooper (DD 695) was struck by a torpedo while engaging Japanese surface craft and barges in the waters of Ormoc Bay, Leyte, Philippines. The ship broke in two and sank in less than a minute, resulting in the loss of 191 crew mem- bers and 168 survivors left struggling in the water. At 1400 Lieutenant Frederick J. Ball and his crew were re- turning from a long-range reconnaissance mission and spotted the survivors floating in the bay. Ball landed his Catalina in the bay and proceeded over the next hour to pick up survivors within range of enemy shore fire. He rescued 56 sailors from the bay, and when the aircraft could hold no more Lieutenant Ball began a takeoff run that took three miles before liftoff could be achieved. He safely returned to his base with his pas- sengers, many of them wounded. The remaining 112 survivors were collected by another VPB-34 Catalina which taxied to safety outside the bay where they were offloaded onto another ship. For his bravery under fire Lieutenant Ball received the Navy Cross.

In my opinion, this level is a lot more intense then "Death From Above" from Modern Warfare. It gets your adrenaline pumping cuz your right in the middle of the fight and there's a chance.of getting shot down unlike being in an AC-130 which hard to take down since it's flying at a high altitude. Not saying it was a bad level, but I enjoyed Black Cats more. And the soundtrack is fucking amazing. Kinda reminds me of that old Xbox game Blood Wake.

[@maxonwolf5841]

Vinsoy_Sauce death from above was more unnerving than intense really

[@wikieditspam]

Totally, totally, totally agree with you! The best part is that you do a water landing in the third part of the level and have to (admittedly the animation is a little weird) pull sailors out of the water before they drown or are murdered by Japanese PT boat crews or burn to death in the oil slick of their own ships, and fight until you run out of ammo. Death From Above you are also flying as a protector, but it feels like you're basically just keeping the SAS team comfortable and saving them the effort of fighting the swarms of ultranationalist you mow down who also magically lack the air defense they used to shoot down Price's team's helicopter in the first place. The action in Black Cats is maybe a little exaggerated but it delivers some great pathos of being part of a crew, executing a devastating attack on the enemy, and struggling to defend your brothers in arms when they were the most vulnerable.

Gabriel Serrano And my only way to safety is under heavy fire? Yes, I probably would try to fight through the pain and shock to make sure I get out of there alive. I've gotten that far, I ain't letting myself get turned into fishfood, not while I have a say about it. Plus, with all that adrenaline pumping through your body, I think the pain of being shot would be drowned out by the panic and heavy swimming. So I'd imagine one with a strong enough resolve could get on a gun and help stave off those Zeros long enough.

As great as the entire mission looks, I think the final bit is the best. So much is happening, from the men crying out for help, the music keeping a constant beat that can be barely heard through all the noise, the PT boats firing on you, kamakazi planes making that loud roaring sound before crashing down and exploding, all of it really sells the difficulty and danger people went through across all combat fields in the war

This was my favorite Call of Duty mission at the time, and it still is because not only are you put in a different kind of environment and war machine the franchise hasn't done before.. but you also feel the sense of hopelessness once you're surrounded by enemy fighters. Mounted machine guns are always badass, and this mission offers several variants. And then you get to add on rescuing efforts WHILE combating enemy forces. Call of Duty doesn't have enough of that : rescuing.
