Question for Aug 13

The visual shows USS Columbia being attacked by the X on January 6, 1945. The X were used in the closing stages of the Pacific campaign of World War II, to destroy as many Allied naval vessels as possible. The word X (translated as "divine wind")  originated as the name of major typhoons in 1274 and 1281, which saved Japan from the Mongolian invasions.
