_Battleship at War_ by Ivan Musicant is the full story of the USS Washington, does a good job at detailing that battle from the USS Washington perspective, and also discusses the early portions of the development of the Combat Information Center (one of the first implementations of the manual processes described at the beginning of article- greasepaint on plastic, reverse writing, etc.- came aboard USS Washington so that Admiral Lee could have improved situational awareness inside the tiny armored room with basically no windows that was the citadel). Read it 30 years ago and still remember it vividly today. |
