There's also the fact that the natives who rescued JFK were actually invited to his inauguration, but the island authorities decided that they were not "appropriate" enough and straight-up prevented them from going. It rather irks me off
@@craggleshenaniganseh JFK came to presidency when systematic racism was still pretty widespread, he made major strives in civil rights before and after his death. So even though they couldn’t be present he helped to ensure that it’d be more achieve-able in the future. He was huge on posterity and great at it.
In March 2015, in Tokyo, the "JFK: His life and legacy" exhibition was held, where Caroline Kennedy, JFK's daughter, and Kazuko Hanami, wife of the captain of the destroyer that collided with the boat, met and confirmed the partnership between Japan and the U.S. At the exhibition, a letter sent by JFK to Captain Hanami in 1953 and a photograph of him with a handwritten message "To Captain Hanami, late enemy and present friend" were displayed. The two had been corresponding, and letters of encouragement were sent from Captain Hanami and former crew members of the destroyer when JFK ran for president. This was featured in the official magazine "American View" of the U.S. Embassy in Japan.
Some more points of interest. JFK's crew 'acquired' a 37mm Anti-tank cannon to mount on their boat. They found it to be effective enough to replace it with the 37mm autocannon from an Aircobra fighter. Which THAT proved so effective it became standard armament for every PT boat afterwards.
By this time, it had been discovered by the submarine service that the torpedoes were defective. At Pearl Harbor the navy would modify torpedoes as they came for service on the submarines. The PTs continued to use defective torpedoes throughout the war, only getting the replacement torpedoes near the end of the war.

The voices have come a long way! They feel like movies! Also, requesting a story (sometime) on Heinrich Severloh, the german soldier who killed around a thousand Americans on Omaha, and later became friends with an American Chaplain who was shot 3 times on that very same beach, possibly from Severloh's own MG.
Fun fact: it’s irrelevant if the torpedoes hit or not. The specific version of torpedo those boats were using was ineffective. There was a design flaw in them that prevented detonation in the vast majority of cases, so any torpedoes that may have hit the ship certainly did not significant damage.
I'm sitting in the basement at my workplace waiting for the tornadoes to blow by here in the Omaha area but at least I got a interesting video to watch while I wait.
In Feb (2024) I had chance to dive the Aaron Ward which was a destoyer JFK served on prior to taking over PT 109. It was also the boat that delivered him to Guadalcanal. Even at 225' I got chills thinking the hatchway I was looking at was once walked through by JFK.
"It doesn't look like much, but she's got it where it counts." -Word! And I bet it would make point-2 past light speed, plus Jack probably made a few modifications himself. When the crew arrived Jack told them, "We're in a bit of a rush so if you'll get on board, we'll get going." 😆
Another slam dunk video!! I love the content you guys put out, I’ve been subscribed since the beginning. If I could change anything about this video, it would have been the accent of Kennedy. Keep up the great work @YarnHub!
the JFK voice actor needs to practice the JFK test phrase: For Supper I Want A Party Platter = Foah Suppah I, er uh, Want Ah _Pahty _*_PLATTAAAAAHHHHHH!!!_*
Several years ago i saw a documentary where some researchers were looking for the PT109 wreckage,They did find engines,torpedo tubes and other pieces in the area where pt109 sank,it couldnt be confirmed as PT 109 but still an interesting find
Hi and I am currently 11 years old and just love you’re content and I love to study WW2 and you helped me learn more about my interests I can’t believe how neat this is and I hope you’re channel grows
If this is about torpedo boats, uncle Zimmermann was a bow gunner (20mm) on an S boat. Yeah the S boats were better, and bigger, and had the "Lurrsen" effect built into the rear hull ,for better seakeeping. If this is about JFK, he was one of the greatest US presidents I care to remember, and don't think we'll see another one as good as he.-TY.
The fatal connection between Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy. Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846, and Kennedy in 1946. Lincoln was elected president in 1860 , and Kennedy in 1960. Both were shot in the head. Both were shot on Friday. Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy. Kennedy's Secretary - Lincoln. Lincoln and Kennedy's successors bore the surname Johnson. Lincoln was assassinated at the Kennedy Theater. Kennedy was killed in a Lincoln car. The killer Booth escaped from the theater and was captured in the attic. The killer Oswald escaped from the attic and was arrested at the theater. 🤟🏼😎🇮🇳
I love all you and your teams videos that are put together and have been watching this channel for years! After watching this video I just wanted to voice an opinion of something you guys are trying out. I am not a big fan of the way you guys have the chapters implemented, it almost makes it seem choppy compared to if you didn't have them in. I'm not sure if you guys had some other issues and had to resort to that or were just trying something new but that is how it looked to me. I really don't know how to improve on that design in the videos but if I think of something I'll edit my comment and throw it in here! Again, I absolutely love all of your content and will continue to support you guys as much as possible! Every time I watch your videos I just more and more amazed at the fact that all of this information is free! I wish I could just give all of you a big hug .🫡
Yarnhub! I LOVE this movie-like format!! There are so many dialogues between the characters, making me as an audience feel like I'm watching a MOVIE!! 🍿🎥 I really would like to support if I can, but I'm just your ordinary broke uni student that watches Yarnhub vids when it is uploaded. Keep the qualities!
Guys: It’s “When Japan *SANK*” the boat. The boat was “sunk” AFTER the Japanese sank it. YES, I am a professional grammarian. It grieves me to make these corrections, as it has never before been necessary. All the best, RL

This Kennedy Boat is in War Thunder! Isn’t it?
They neglected to mention that JFK actually kept that coconut with the distress message on his desk in the White House.

As I recall it is now in the JFK museum.

What a fine video of my very good friend Jack K and the story about him and his PT109.....I am in my late 80's....Thanks Yarnhub......

Screw sleep, Yarhub uploaded. Absolutely amazing job once again. The growth of your animation style is still as mind-boggling.
I swear, this animation is getting better and better with every new video posted! Keep up the good work guys!
Ngl pretty mind blowing what would happen to that one sailor 20 years later
I don't think we learned that JFK was in WW2 until now
I did, but I didn't know about PT 59.
Ayoo watch yo boat watch yo boat!!!!

yarnhub genuinely impresses me with every video, the animations and voice lines are immaculate idk how you do it but don’t stop👏👏
I'd like to see Yarnhub do one on the USS Pueblo if they haven't already.
Spongebob: and that's how JKL was born! 😁
Sank is the past tense of sink, just an fyi sunk is the past participle
Just so you know, nobody gives a shit

Your animation is getting better all the time. Next time you do a video about JFK, you might want to work on his deep, modified Boston accent.
Shoutout to the 1963 cliff Robertson movie PT109
was it not john f kennedy who had the pt 109 or am i missing something
Jack is a nickname for John
Jack Kennedy?!?
If I’m not mistaken, Jack is a nickname for John. Jack Lemmon for instance was born John Uhler Lemmon III.
He was often called jack
10:34 why he got that mcarthur drip
JFK had a good sense of style well into his presidential days
Yet another extraordinary video from the Yarnhub team! You guys never cease to amaze, brilliant work!

But I never saw a Lt(JG) consoling a senior officer, ever. 😂
"I don't know, but Jack Kennedy seems to be a rather incompetent officer. He allows his ship to be run over by a destroyer and runs out of gas.
Caution has never been a trait associated with the Kennedys'.
He couldnt see the destroyer due to heavy fog
Fantastic work Yarnhub please do the story of Lt Royce Williams who took on 7 Mig-15s of the Soviet Naval Aviation.

JFK and his crew were goofing off and asleep.
"well gentlemen buckle up" was the most badass line Kennedy said
If I recall rightly didn't JFK keep an coconut on his desk at the Whitehouse as a reminder of what happened during his time on the PT boat.
Good movie 'PT 109' 1963 starring Cliff Robertson

why was he calling him jack, when his name is john?
Again, y’all make stuff way better than Hollywood at this point
Are you guys thinking of doing the story of the last king tiger?
G gordan liddy always said the 109 crew must have been drunk to get run over be a destroyer that was slower than they were
Rest in Peace Mr. President and thank you for your service!
Hit it in middle of the night
Never knew it was there
I love their videos sooooooo much
read a book about the PT boats....small boats, no armor, lots of guts to operate those things.
I have missed you yarnhub the graphics are absolutely fantastic, who else is enjoying
Not me when i saw a little glance at the thumbnail i thought it was real
More jet stories please
Who made an entire movie on TH-cam like this? Lol
had to watch with CC on so i could sub his voice with a proper MA accent in my head.
Blud survived pacific war, entire japanese army but not survived single sniper

Turn this into a whole tv series for kids
You know I really wonder if JFK should have patrolled at half speed to avoid getting cut in half by the Japanese destroyers
WAR THUNDER!?!?!
*violently convulses *
PT 109 is famous. I don't know why PT59 is less so. I think there was a movie called PT 109. Couldn't they name their boats?
0:50 how did a 40 mm Bofos type anti air gun turn into a MG 42 type? :D
Or JFK was so dumb, he carried the wrong ammo to the wrong gun? :P
Incredible graphics!
Good video overall, but weird how they did not even try to do JFK's famous accent...
I have watched all of your videos . So please post more often ❤
Didn't JFK steal a 37mm cannon off a plane to put on one of his pt boats?
I wonder what were the reaction of the crew and the Marines rescued that JFK became President?
Sur un "hors-bord", le(s) moteur(s) sont hors bord (ça semble assez logique) et non in-board. Le patrouilleur de JFK n'était pas un Go-fast.

The boat was “sunk” AFTER the Japanese sank it.
