Panoramic views of #LeyteGulf at a family beach resort on Samar during a weekend road trip. We just stopped by & asked "Is that top room available?" 🙏 Even had a kind dog minding the porch for us. Amazing that off these shores raged one of the world"s largest naval battles.
Largest naval battle in history? The Battle of Leyte Gulf (1944) involved 200,000+ sailors & was the last battle where battleships fought one another. It also birthed Japan's first organized kamikaze attacks. Talk about a game changer. #LeyteGulf #History
The @USNavy avoids renaming ships, it’s seen as bad luck. Take CVE-63: originally named Midway, it was renamed St. Lo to free up the name for a larger carrier. It sank shortly after during the Battle of Leyte Gulf. ⚓💥 #WWII #USNavy #LeyteGulf #NavalHistory

🗓️ Oct 26, 1944 — The Battle of Leyte Gulf, one of the largest naval battles in history, highlights how teamwork and collaboration led the Allies to a decisive victory. #NavalHistory #LeyteGulf #Teamwork #ArmilitaryHeritage
BTW, today was the anniversary of the greatest destroyer action in naval history.. The "small boys" of Taffy 3 versus the (last) Japanese battle fleet at #leytegulf en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of…
The Japanese Navy’s “Victory Operation” not only failed to disrupt the Leyte landings, it resulted in serious losses to what remained of Japan’s surface fleet. The Imperial Japanese Navy had all but ceased to exist as an offensive force. #LeyteGulf
Japan’s total losses in the Battle of #LeyteGulf amounted to 3 battleships, 1 large carrier, 3 light carriers, 6 heavy cruisers, 4 light cruisers, and 11 destroyers.
He also took the fast battleships USS New Jersey (William "Bull" Halsey’s flagship) and USS Iowa on a futile pursuit of Kurita’s long gone fleet. This final stage of the Battle of #LeyteGulf has been derisively termed “Bull’s Run.”
Interpreting “the world wonders” as a stinging rebuke from the commander of the Pacific Fleet, an insulted Halsey at last dispatched an air strike to harass the already retiring Japanese central force. #LeyteGulf
Halsey received messages urging him to aid Taffy 3. Nimitz himself sent what would become one of the most famous radio messages of the entire war: “WHERE IS RPT WHERE IS TASK FORCE THIRTY FOUR RR THE WORLD WONDERS.” #LeyteGulf
The ensuing engagement reflected the dramatic imbalance in power that now existed between U.S. and Japanese naval strength, and the result was so lopsided that it was almost an anticlimax when measured against the action which was taking place simultaneously at Samar. #LeyteGulf
