Your picture only shows thumbnail size for me, Sarge.



Terminus -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/20/2011 3:32:18 PM)

Could be because that's what he's posted...



LeeChard -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/20/2011 7:59:42 PM)

Tiornu -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/21/2011 3:24:27 AM)

That's a bit bigger, yes.
Makes an interesting comparison with these shots:

So what's this? About flotation damage 45? [:D]



Tiornu -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/21/2011 3:23:01 PM)

The hit on Portland was so powerful that it took a section of her armor deck and threw it all the way up into the aft 8in guns.



Mac Linehan -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/21/2011 10:34:20 PM)

Sargeant Tex -

Great Photos!

Mac



Jorm -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/21/2011 10:45:13 PM)

BJ,

Thats a great point really, ive never been able to visualise how to relate the damage numbers to real ship damage,
cool pics

be fun if some one set out a series of pics for 10, 20, 30 % flotation damage etc

cheers

J

TBH this looks more like 50+ major damage and a hell lot of repaired minor.
A Japanese CA wouldn´t have even come this far.
Everytime I look at such pictures I have to applaud the genius and force of US damage control.



ChezDaJez -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/22/2011 12:13:44 AM)

I have a patient whose family told me he was on the New Orleans during Pearl Harbor. I'll have to ask him if he was onboard at Tassafaronga. I hope he can tell me his experiences if he was. He has a bit of Alzheimer's so I'm not sure that he will recall this.

Don't know if anyone noticed but we have a real security breach here (pictures top left corner) [:-]
All JFB's now know that she will be in drydock for at least half a year



SargeantTex -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/22/2011 4:12:12 PM)

Portland torpedo damage after they cleared all the wreckage out

Tiornu -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/22/2011 4:33:50 PM)

Note that the turret hasn't budged.



SargeantTex -> RE: Long Lance Lances (1/22/2011 11:15:45 PM)

Selfridge (a half knot faster and she would have been done for)

Imagine what a jap sub commander would have thought looking through his scope at this
