If you bring up Operation Crossroads, there are certain ships that will be mentioned. Saratoga, for example. Or the battleships, ranging from Arkansas to Pennsylvania. And that's just the American ones. You'll also probably hear about Nagato and Prinz Eugen, the war prizes.
What you probably won't hear about, except maybe a footnote, is Sakawa.
The second Japanese warship present at Bikini. A light cruiser, that was a leaky mess by the time of the tests. And was, for all intents and purposes, obliterated by the first test.This is a ship that typically gets only a brief mention, if anything at all.
Which is a shame, because she's a nice ship. Simply one that never had the chance, through no fault of her own, to see real combat.
