 Meanwhile, Admiral Spruance now had word as to where the Japanese were, and although he was at the extreme limits of the range of his fighters, he ordered everyone that could fly into the air and go out after that Japanese fleet and put it in the bottom of the ocean. Some planes never did find the Japanese fleet. The torpedo planes did, and they came in, two squadrons of them, and they took the first squadron 100% losses and the next 90% losses and were unable to score any hits at all.
