Download World of Warships today https://wo.ws/3WHSY50 and this December World of Warships will be releasing 12 new ships to their massive collection with multiple ship classes to choose from!

Midway on June 4, 1942 was a decisive battle of the Pacific War. Lt. Richard Best is in Squadron Six(VB-6) of the USS Enterprise Air flying an SBD Dauntless bomber. The Americans are going up against the mighty Japanese fleet also known as the Kidō Butai. On this day, Best and his SBD Dauntless will take part in the sinking of 2 of the 4 Japanese carriers lost in the battle. The Akagi went down as a result of Best's accurate bomb drop and his was one of four bombs that saw the end of the Hiryū. The loss of these ships was a shattering blow for the Japanese High Command
