(American Sailors Series, Part 12) Watch our video "Admiral Sprague Made History In The Most Unlikely Win In American Naval History (Ep.12)" and "Dive into the heart of one of World War II's most daunting naval confrontations on October 25, 1944, when a vastly outnumbered group of American ships faced the might of the Japanese fleet. In this gripping series of 'WW2 Tales,' we explore the Battle off Samar, where Rear Admiral Clifton A. F. Sprague's Task Unit 77.4.3, known as 'Taffy 3,' heroically clashed with enemy battleships and cruisers. Discover the saga of the USS Hoel, USS Johnston, USS Samuel B. Roberts, and USS Gambier Bay—ships that valiantly fought and were lost, leaving their crews fighting for survival in the shark-infested waters. We also honor the USS St. Lo, whose fate was sealed by a kamikaze attack. Witness the extraordinary courage and resilience of the men who faced near-certain end yet fought to the last shell. Don't miss this incredible story of bravery and survival—subscribe now to catch each episode of our World War II series."
