Sorry to fill the airwaves with slightly off topic stuff again, but to a
naval buff, watching the Lex try to look like a Japanese carrier brings back
memories of the cruiser USS Salem (with three 8" turrets) trying to look like
the German pocket battleship Graf Spee (with two 10" turrets and a
superstructure nothing like the Salem). I think that movie was in the 60's
