Late Night With Rule 5 Sunday: IJN Uranami

This has been, to put it mildly, a shitty weekend. Today I got the word that a good friend of mine, conservative journalist & SF fan Martin Morse Wooster, was killed by a hit & run driver while attending an ale conference in Williamsburg, Virginia. Also, I spent considerable time trying to talk another friend in the DC area out of becoming an hero, which is probably going to be an ongoing effort.
On a more cheerful note, this week’s shipgirl is IJN Uranami, one of the post-WW1 Fubuki class. Uranami was a busy girl, playing a prominent role in the invasions of Malaya, Borneo, and various islands in the Dutch East Indies as well as the Tokyo Express supply runs to Guadalcanal. She finally met her end in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, when the convoy she was escorting to Manila got jumped by planes from Task Force 77’s escort carriers Manila Bay, Marcus Island, Natoma Bay, & Petrof Bay. Uranami collected two bombs & several rockets, which sent her to the bottom at noon, October 26. Her wreck has not been found. 
Ceterum autem censeo Silicon Valley esse delendam.
