@Admiral Roman Reigns. Task Force 38 was a supposed to be Halseys battleships under Admiral Lee that was ment to defend Leyte Gulf if Kurita returned after retreating. The BBs involved would have been the Fast BBs like Iowa, and Alabama. However Halsey took the BBs with him without elling High Command and as a result the Battle off Samar took place against Taffy 3, not the planned Task Force 34.
