Exquisite work, as usual. Are you planning to do the entire Pacific Theater like this? :-)

A couple of things that might need copyediting, though:
 * Do ship types take articles? In other words, should "sinking light cruiser Yura and damaging destroyer Akizuki" be "sinking the light cruiser Yura and damaging the destroyer Akizuki"?
 * As far as I know, when discursive material follows a source citation in a footnote, the two should be separated by a period, not a semicolon.

Overall, though, this is a great article! Kirill Lokshin 01:20, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure on using "the" with ship types + the ship name. Sometimes I use it, and sometimes I don't, depending on how the sentence sounds when I vocalize it to myself.  I guess I need to look-up what the standard is for consistency purposes.  I'll change the footnote semicolons to periods.  I'll wait a couple of days before I archive the peer review while I proofread the article a couple more times to make sure I didn't miss any other mistakes, then submit it for FA.  I do plan on working through the Pacific campaign as long as I'm willing and able to.  Perhaps I should put more information on my User page that gives the reasons why I'm so interested in that particular campaign.  Anyway, thank you for the review and feedback.
