It seems odd that the phrase "Great Marianas Turkey Shoot" is not mentioned once in the article, considering that it is one of the most famous aspects of the battle. Grant65 | Talk 14:57, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is this a typo?

"While the air battle raged, US submarines sunk two Japanese fleet carriers. The US counterattack, however, failed to do significant damage in return." Should it be Japanese counterattack?Harold14370 10:41, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

nope - the counterattack was against the IJN by the USN. --89.54.153.194 12:11, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
