1 tim 49 min10 mars 2026

This week Seth Paridon and Jon Parshall are delighted to welcome Sal Mercogliano from What’s Going on With Shipping to the show to discuss US Navy fast oilers and the logistic issues in the Pacific during 1942.  Seth and Jon give Sal the wheel and he drives us through an absolutely fascinating presentation on the US Navy’s oiler situation in late 1941 and through 1942.You guys will be absolutely amazed at how much just a handful of oilers mattered when it came to the overall scheme of making war in the Pacific from Pearl Harbor through Guadalcanal.  Sal expertly delivers this awesome presentation that will be sure to make all the logisticians and duly anointed members of the Nerderati gush with joy.  This is the first, but certainly not the last time we will be yacking with Sal.  Enjoy.
