This week Seth and Bill take a look at an oft-forgotten, but strategically important, episode of the Pacific War. In July 1945, Admiral William F. Halsey took his mighty 3rd Fleet to the very shores of Japan. Sending his carriers into the harbors and towns to wreak havoc, Halsey then detached his surface forces, specifically his battleships, to shell steel mills and infrastructure facilities along the eastern coast of Honshu. Over the final weeks of the war, battleships like USS South Dakota, USS Massachusetts, USS Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, and others, pounded Japanese infrastructure with impunity. The shellings at Kamaishi, Muroran, Hitachi, and other locales devastated Japanese economy and inflicted abject terror into the civilian populace. Tune in to see what the guys have to say about this little known parade of destruction laid on the Japanese towards the end of the war. #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #usnavy #usa #usarmy #medalofhonor #enterprise #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #cv6 #midway #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #worldwar2 #usnavy #usnavyseals #usmc #usmarines #saipan #usa #usarmy #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #battleship #battleships #ussenterprise #aircraftcarriers #museum #essex #halsey #taskforce38 #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #usnavy #usa #usarmy #medalofhonor #enterprise #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #cv6 #midway #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #worldwar2 #usnavy #usnavyseals #usmc #usmarines #saipan #usa #usarmy #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #battleship #battleships #ussenterprise #aircraftcarriers #museum #hollywood #movie #movies #books #mastersoftheair #8thairforce #mightyeighth #100thbombgroup #bloodyhundredth #b17 #boeing #airforce wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #usnavy #usa #usarmy #medalofhonor #enterprise #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #cv6 #midway #wwii #wwiihistory #ww2 #worldwar2 #usnavy #usnavyseals #usmc #usmarines #saipan #usa #usarmy #aircraft #aircraftcarrier #battleship #battleships #ussenterprise #aircraftcarriers #museum #hollywood #movie #movies #books #oldbreed #1stMarineDivision #thepacific #Peleliu #army #marines #marinecorps #worldwar2 #worldwar #worldwarii #leytegulf #battleofleytegulf #rodserling #twilightzone #liberation #blacksheep #power #prisoner #prisonerofwar #typhoon #hurricane #weather #iwojima#bullhalsey #ace #p47 #p38 #fighter #fighterpilot #b29 #strategicstudying #tokyo #boeing #incendiary #usa #franklin #okinawa #yamato #kamikaze #Q&A #questions #questionsandanswers

The Tokyo Games has come to an end, but the relationship formed between Kamaishi City and Australia, as part of the "Light up Host Town Project" will leave a lasting legacy that will continue beyond Tokyo 2020 . - 東日本大震災から復興した姿を見せつつ、これまでの支援への感謝を伝えるためにオーストラリアのホストタウンとして登録した岩手県釜石市。その交流は東京大会後も続きます。
During a season of Christmas concerts a number of years ago, I was traveling near the city of Kamaishi, Japan where the 2011 tsunami hit. Of 16,000 people killed by the tsunami, over 1,000 were killed in this town, and it’s not a very big place. Everyone there knows someone who died.
A Kiwi man has been charged with the murder of five family members in Fiji. The Post mortem results showed they died as result of ingesting a toxic substance. A commercial flight with 326 people on-board was forced to make an emergency landing after the pilot accidentally spilled hot coffee over the cockpit control panel. No one was injured during the accident The Australian National Party reportedly plans to lobby the Federal Government to prohibit plant-based alternatives from using the terms 'milk', 'meat' and 'seafood' on their packaging as they confuse consumers Clarke Gayford has captured the scary moment he was forced to cut a fishing trip short when a wild tiger threatened his group's safety. The Fish of the Day host filmed the video from the banks of a river in Malaysia's Endau-Rompin National Park. A memorial stadium in the small town of Kamaishi has been built on the site of an elementary school destroyed in the tsunami. The stadium is now a symbol of what's become a long-standing relationship between rugby and local royalty who haven't forgotten the generosity of the sporting community.

Town devastated by 2011 tsunami hosts rugby match that's about much more than just sport
Ruaidhri O'Connor and Alan Quinlan were at Ireland's Captain's Run to hear assistant coach Andy Farrell's views on the defeat to Japan and the state of refereeing in the tournament ahead of the clash with Russia. Quinny assesses Ireland's performance, wonders where the leaders have gone but believes they have enough left to bounce back and achieve in Japan. It's not all Ireland, the former Munster back-row has been on the road and experienced something special in Kamaishi last week when Uruguay beat Fiji.
After the second indecisive general election in Israel this year, Benjamin Netanyahu has been asked to form a new government - but can he make it work? Some observers said last week's election would mark the end of the Netanyahu era, but Jeremy Bowen warns that premature political obituaries for Mr Netanyahu have proved wrong before. Plus: Hugo Bachega reports on a controversial crackdown on street gangs in the favelas of the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro, which has led to the death of a number of innocent casualties this year. President Trump has frequently castigated Iran, calling it a 'repressive regime' - but what do US voters think about this constant sabre-rattling? The USA is home to a sizeable Iranian diaspora, and Lois Pryce travelled to California to test the political temperature in LA's Iranian quarter, 'Tehrangeles'. Pre-packaged adventures into the wilds to spy on the wonders of nature are big business, but on a trip to Uganda, Lottie Gross experienced a creeping sense of unease, as the intrusive nature of her luxury adventure began to unfold. The Rugby World Cup is currently underway in Japan and for one of the host cities - the coastal city of Kamaishi - the competition marks a remarkable recovery. Ash Bhardwaj has been exploring what rugby means for the city, as it recovers from the devastation caused by a Tsunami in 2011.
Tag sechs der Rugby-WM sah ein Aufeinandertreffen von zwei Mannschaften der Gruppe D. Fidschi, das in ihrem ersten Spiel Australien lange Zeit Paroli geboten hatte, traf auf Uruguay. Für Südamerikas Nummer 2 war das Spiel im Kamaishi Recovery Memorial Stadium der Auftakt in die WM 2019. Das Spiel fand an einem besonderen Ort in Japan statt. Kamaishi war 2011 bei dem verheerenden Tsunami einer der am stärksten betroffenen Orte gewesen. Doch die Stadt hat sich langsam wieder von dieser Katastrophe erholt. Beide Mannschaften hatten vorher Erinnerungsstätten besucht und somit der Stadt ihre Ehre erwiesen. In Kamaishi wird noch ein zweites Spiel ausgetragen, am 13. Oktober werden Namibia und Kanada im kleinsten WM-Stadion auflaufen. Uruguay schaffte nach sehenswertem Spiel die große Überraschung und konnte den Favoriten mit 30-27 besiegen. Andreas Thies hat das Spiel zusammengefasst....

Détruite par le tsunami de 2011, la petite cité côtière de Kamaishi, dans le nord du Japon, est l’une des douze villes hôtes de la Coupe du monde de rugby 2019. Accueillir le Mondial a permis d’accélérer la reconstruction de la ville et de ressouder les habitants autour d’un projet commun. Le récit de nos reporters sur place.
Partially destroyed by the 2011 tsunami, the small Japanese coastal city of Kamaishi is one of the twelve host cities of the 2019 Rugby World Cup. Hosting the event has helped speed up Kamaishi’s reconstruction and has united the inhabitants around a common objective. Our team reports.
Japan is preparing to host next year's Rugby World Cup, with a new stadium opening in the country's north-east.
Kamaishi junior high students saved themselves and many others during the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Geologist Lori Dengler highlights the students and preparedness drills that saved many lives.
In the most earthquake ready country on earth – Japan - a massive tsunami in 2011 hit two schools in Kamaishi and Okawa. At one everyone survived; at the other 74 children were killed. What went wrong? We hear gripping contributions from pupils at both schools, including Mai Ogasawara and Tetsuya Tadano; location recordings from Mai Nishiyama and Yu Wada Dimmer on the aftermath of the giant wave; plus interviews with Richard Lloyd Parry, author of Ghosts of the Tsunami and Robert Muir-Wood, author of the Cure for Catastrophe.
