Who was Japan's greatest naval hero destroying the mighty Russian Black Fleet in the Straits of Tsushima in 1905 during the Russo-Japanese War?
The "Mighty Russian Black Sea Fleet" wasn't in the war. It was the only fleet to survive the war; blocked into the Black Sea by treaty. Admiral Togo defeated the Russian battlewagons at Tsushima on 27 May 1905. But it was a good fight! Admiral Rozhestvensky "charged" his battleships into Togo's line, at least he fought! Another sea battle, which can go un-said, in 1916...the commanders turned and fled...so much for that battle! Note: Rozhestvensky commanded the "Baltic Fleet" later redesignated the "2nd Pacific Fleet/Squadron." The 1st Pacific Fleet was knocked out action at Port Arthur in 1904.

The "Battle of Tsushima", sometimes pronounced as "Sue-she-ma", or some people might pronounce it as "To-she-ma." Most historians most likely use the former pronunciation. The Tsushima Straits (where the battle occurred) is named after the island of Tsushima, which sits in the Straits. Some writing's state that the Japanese name, Tsushima; means "Donkey's Ears" in English. Some maps show the Tsushima Straits as the Korean Straits; which would also be accurate, as those straits do separate Japan from Korea. Whatever the name, the straits did offer the most direct route for the Russian battleship squadron to their port in Vladivstock; which is why the Russian Admiral chose to fight his way through it.
