Indeed. It also didn’t help that they were rearming from sea combat to shore and back to sea when the US attacked. Plus one of the greatest successful failures occurred that day, when the US Air group, contrary to doctrine, attacked piecemeal, eventually leaving the skies mostly clear for Bombing 3 (Yorktown) and Bombing 6 (Enterprise), though another blunder occurred from McCluskey when he and Bombing 3 attacked the first carrier in sight.
