The probably largest impact was it's effect on US Navy Captains. When the USS Indianapolis was sunk in Summer of 1945 by a submarine, it was not running a zig-zag course. Thats because its commander, Captain Charles B McVay saw it as useless with Kaiten Submarines available to Japanese Subs. The USS Indianapolis was sunk with regular torpedoes, but the 880 casualties are an indirect result of the Kaiten submarine

[@leodesalis5915]

The captain of the submarine testified that zig-zag or not, he would've sunk the indianapolis. He was a very capable captain and indianapolis was all alone on a secret mission with practically no support. The zig zag stuff was just another way to scapegoat the captain for the navy's massive screw up.

[@doctordetroit4339]

McVay also asked for destroyer escorts and was denied.....the ship had no chance. Cruisers do not sink subs.....destroyers do.

[@MA_KA_PA_TIE]

Sounds more like the result of a dumb captains poor logic. Just cuz the japs had Kaiten doesn't mean they will be used on every attack. What a fool.

[@lacesout8292]

​@@doctordetroit4339I totally agree once I saw the documentary about being denied support ships by idiot Navy leadership

[@5552-d8b]

Yea sadly the cpt never recovered from the ordeal after getting blamed for his crews death. He was given letters by family members who’s sons died on the ship, blaming the man for the deaths of there sons. He shot himself and died. His crew always maintained before and after his death that he was not to blame.

[@MarkLac]

Ironically enough USS Mississinewa’s story does not end with the Kaiten Mission. In 2001, her wreck was discovered by divers that noticed an oil trail on the surface. When divers went down they discovered she was indeed leaking oil and the environment was at risk of a catastrophic spill that would have affected Ulithi’s Coral Reeds and wildlife. So in the end when it became clear they could not keep plugging the holes to stop the leaks, the Navy had to go in and literally pump out what was left on board, recovering over 2,000,000 Gallons of Fuel Oil.

This was a rather beautiful story. War is hell, pointless deaths in the name of borders and politics. But no matter the side they were on, these men fought for their countries, fought for their brothers and their families back home with conviction and determination in the face of overwhelming odds. Yarnhub, this is why id pick your stuff over a documentary on the tv. Until i came across you years ago (on a different account) id never really thought about the stories from the other side of the table. You humanised those i had dehumanised for so long. They were all just kids, fighting for the same things our grandads and great granddads fought for.

[@xcritic9671]

So stopping Hitler was “pointless”? Not all wars are about only borders and politics, sometimes we have to fight simply because it’s the right thing to do.

[@BeardyPr1ck]

@@xcritic9671 I would say failing to eradicate his ideological beliefs, all those nazi scientist and stuff that got safe harbour in the west because us in the west would rather the tech and secrets they had was pointless. We won the war on paper, that was it. I'm not disagreeing with you. Hitler needed stopped. But the millions of life's lost to stop him was pointless. Even then he wasn't really stopped he was martyred and lives on in so many. And I'm sorry but yes wars are simply about borders and politics. It was politics that made a disgruntled little megalomaniac try take over the world. It was borders that took Europe to war, because remember a lot in the west agreed with Hitler, so much so we sent boat loads of Jews back to their deaths, because we didnt want them, it was borders not being respected and politics that lead to the US being brought into the war. So at the end of the day, yes it is all pointless. We had the great war, the war to end all wars. Where did it get us, no where. Just the same shit, different shovel.

Japan: "It is through kamikaze that they will see our dedication and resolve!" US: "They're insane!"

[@bkjeong4302]

Kamikazes (at least the aerial versions) actually proved less costly to Japan than conventional attacks by late 1944 due to the heavy losses they would take anyways from Allied fighter screens.

[@tk-5712]

If Japan had the same resources and military strength as the U.S., there would be no kamikaze attack. Japan had also developed a very large strategic bomber (1.5 times the size of the B-29 and three times the range of the B-29) for the purpose of bombing the U.S. mainland. They were also researching the atomic bomb. After Japan's defeat in the war, the U.S. government was surprised to learn of this fact.

[@EdricLysharae]

@@tk-5712, Oh yes, there was not any parity between these two wartime powers, on multiple levels. Japan had the people and the resolve, but they did not have the industrial capacity to fight a protracted war. Was part of that technology what later came to be known as "Hitler's Gift"?

[@bkjeong4302]

@@EdricLysharae That’s their point; Japan resorted to kamikazes out of sheer military desperation, not because of any sort of inherent belief or doctrine.

[@tk-5712]

@@EdricLysharae The goal would have been to create an economic blockade on Japan and to justify the U.S. war by getting Japan to start a war. What is “Hitler's Gift?” The atomic bomb was developed independently by Japan. Jet fighters only with rough pictures and rough drawings of the fuselage and jet engines. Therefore, it was developed independently without any technical provision from Germany. Guns were introduced to Japan in 1543. Seventy years later, Japan became the world's largest producer and owner of guns. This is also proof of the high level of Japanese imagination and engineers.

It is somewhat odd, because many of them were forced to fight against their will, especially in the german army, like my great grandfather, who died a pointless death three days before the wars end, forever traumatising my grandfather. But I would never say I condone what the man did, because he fought against the forces that ultimately liberated us and gave us freedom and peace, even though not his choice. War is evil, pre war Germany, Japan and Italy were evil, and I only wish they had come to a faster end.

I wanted to stay in a quiet Japanese town after hiking in the hills (rather than go straight to a big city), and I randomly picked a little town south west of Hiroshima. There was a mini sub museum there - but you had to get a boat to an island to visit (edit: it was the Kaiten Memorial Museum, on the island of Ōtsushima). I have a feeling it may have been a bit sensitive - the people I spoke to, at the mainland info centre, were polite enough, but I wasn't getting a good vibe from them.
