On 6th January, in 1945, USS Mississippi (BB-41) was hit by a kamikaze during the Invasion of Lingayen Gulf. While en route to Pearl Harbor for repairs, the skipper developed a plan to upgrade the guns and add more A.A. weapons to all available deck space. The plan was so practical that the Navy was able to quickly implement it. The Mississippi returned to service three months later with a 300% increase in firepower.
