At the end of WWII the Japanese sent their largest
battleship to defend Okinawa with only enough fuel to make the trip one-way. We sank it before it got there. European oil was in limited supply. The US Army Air Corps bombed the German controlled oil field in Eastern Europe and the refineries. Germany developed synthetic oil. "Robert M.
