• FPP200 - Kamikazes: the Terrifying Divine Wind of World War ll

  In late 1944 when it was clear the war in the Pacific was lost, the Imperial Japanese Navy employed a frightening tactic to attack the US Navy: suicide attacks.

Gary explains the mindset and techniques used by Japanese pilots to commit aerial hari-kari.Check out Gary's book, A Grand Pause chronicling a single day in 1945 between battling U.S. and Japanese navies here.For financial planning questions or assistance, contact Zach Mindel at [email protected], (630) 474-3599, or visit https://www.forumfinancial.com/profile/zachary-mindel/Zach Mindel is a Financial Advisor with Forum Financial Management, a registered investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
