Probable hoax. Isoroku Yamamoto could not have "commandeered" an invasion fleet in 1945 because he died in 1943. McWomble (talk) 11:39, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as hoax. Yamamoto died in 1943, as the nom points out. Colonial Fiji#Fiji in World War II doesn't mention anything like this. A google search for "battle of fiji" leads to nothing relevant. The article reads like WP:NFT—Fiji has 322 islands, not one as the article implies, and why would Filipino troops be stationed in Fiji? Darkspots (talk) 11:50, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete as vandalism: A hoax. Schuym1 (talk) 12:09, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
