Show EDWIN CANNON "NED" WINDER T B R 22 20 1 NED: There were a lot of ships docked in ther mo t of th d tr y r . BEC: And so you'd go out on these pickets and get whatever in£ rmation y u could. Now you said, when you were attacked you were out there with the Hale. W r th r ju t two of you that would go at a time or were there more ships? NED: Well, they were behind us and they had them scattered along in-there wasn't just one out there. We were the farthest in the East China Sea to Japan and as I say, the purpose was to relay the information that radar at that time couldn't get. Now they could, that would be a piece of cake with the equipment they have now. And, so, it seemed like when we were waiting there a few days, about every night one would come in that had been shot up or they'd had some scary-and that was when Japan had decided to just throw everything at us with suicide attacks. BEC: Desperation. NED: They were getting young kids that hardly knew how to fly. Wasn't that [World Trade Center Attack] terrible on September 11th? BEC: NED: BEC: NED: BEC: NED: That was terrible. Man, looking at those pictures were horrifying, weren't they? Yeah. And to bring down two buildings like that, that was really successful. Yeah, I would say. You even wonder if they planned it to be that successful. Oh, no. I think it exceeded their best plans. Usually, when something hits something, why, but boy that one plane, the second one, went right through the comer of the building and out the other side. And then to have them fall, as they did. 46 |
