Drachinifel -- Typhoon Cobra - When the weather does more damage than the enemy

"Today we take a look at the first of 'Halsey's Typhoons', what happened, why, and who had a lucky escape?"

Drachinifel's latest video is a narrative of Halsey's fleet which ends up sailing through the middle of Typhoon Cobra.  The anecdotal accounts through the video draw a great picture.  Highly recommended if you can spare an hour.
