Sample Book Insights:
#1 The destroyers trailed a net behind them as they steamed southwards, leading the Japanese cruiser to believe they were retreating. When they turned north to attack, the giant ship was there.
#2 The flotilla leader was attacked by the cruiser and the destroyer that were following her. The noise of the battle was intense, with men shouting and banging on each other’s shoulders to get attention. The flotilla leader was eventually saved by another destroyer.
#3 The battle against the Japanese cruiser Haguro was a brilliant, but very risky, operation. It could not have taken place if the C-in-C’s initial orders had been obeyed, and it could never have been successful but for Japanese negligence.
#4 The story of the battle of the Java Sea lived on in the memories of the Royal Navy, and was taught to new generations of officers. It was never to be repeated, but it proved that nothing had been lost in the Royal Navy’s ability to fight.
