The genius of the code breakers and the luck of not having our carriers discovered before we found the Japanese carriers was such a close call. Avalon-Hill back in the sixties had the military game Midway where players could see how close we came to being discovered and how lucky we were to find them first. The Museum and their carrier displays and midway display is the best in the nation, and 76 years later with technology what it is this type of battle can never happen again, and scout planes have been replaced by satellites which can track every ship on the seas, however never has a battle meant so much in our history.
