Under what circumstances was the "judgment" combat action determined?

Cunningham was scheduled to launch a surprise attack on 2 1, 10. Choosing this day is quite troublesome for him. First of all, it was a full moon at 2 1 that night, and the bright moonlight was beneficial for the pilot to find the target and his aircraft carrier when he returned. Secondly, 65438+1October 2 1 is an auspicious day for the British navy-0805 65438+1October 2 1. Nelson, a famous British navy, led the British fleet and defeated the joint fleet of France and Spain in the naval battle of Trafalgar.

Unfortunately, people are not as good as the sky, and this carefully arranged schedule was unfortunately set on fire by an unexpected little Mars. In the hangar of Glory, a ground crew member accidentally slipped while loading the auxiliary fuel tank in the back seat of Swordfish, and the screwdriver in his hand touched a power switch, and the electric spark ignited the leaked gasoline in the fuel tank. The fire quickly swallowed up two swordfish planes. Although the salt water sprayed by the fire extinguisher at the top of the hangar quickly put out the fire, both the hangar and the plane have to be cleaned, dried and reassembled with fresh water, which takes time.

Cunningham had to improvise and postpone the attack to165438+1October 1 1, codenamed "Trial".
