Hi Ron,
Nice photos you have there but, sadly, and no offense meant from a forum newcomer, but for historically accuracy you should realize that the photos are NOT taken during the Battle of the Java Sea (27th Feb 1942) and that you have them miscaptioned.
For instance, re the captions;
The photo imbedded in your post is actually Exeter being bombed by Japanese aircraft on the 15th February 1942 during her sortie through the Gasper Strait, not shelled by HIJMS Nachi.
And the photos on the linked web page are as follows.
The photo entitled 'The end of HNLMS Java' actually shows bombs from Japanese aircraft falling around Java, on the 15th February 1942, during the so-called 'Gasper Strait sortie', not the torp hit that sank her (which happened late at night, i.e. almost midnight on 27th Feb 1942.)
The photo entitled 'HMS Electra in her death throes' is actually the Dutch destroyer HNLMS Van Ghent aground in the Gasper Strait (and yes, in her death throes) on 15th February 1942.
The two photos entitled 'HMS Exeter under fire from the Japanese cruiser Nachi' are actually Exeter being bombed by Japanese aircraft on the 15th February 1942 during her sortie through the Gasper Strait.
For the record the Allied Fleet did not encounter any Japanese ships on this sortie.
The photos of Exeter and Java are believed to have been taken from HMAS Hobart and copies of same are actually available from the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, Australia.

Wally P.
