For those like myself who thought very highly of this video on the battle of Midway, we now have the follow up. Of necessity, the next two videos depend on the a good knowledge of the previous video for their context.
I personally would re-watch the first video if it was not still clear in my mind and then immediately watch the video on the American perspective below as I think the contrast is most interesting. The author is calling it video number 3 but I really think it should be the second one.
The last video I would watch is the one that covers the rest of battle below. It is interesting in its own right but most of the significant stuff takes place in the previous two videos.

Assuming (and it is a dangerous assumption for a couple of reasons) that we hit the drop off point at similar level then we have a ways to go yet. Sweden seems to have hit it around the 570 mark and we are a lot closer to that. But a lot depends on how you count COVID deaths among other things.
