Yes Chester nimitz and isaruko yamamoto

That's not really possible for those two to be attaches here. Nimitz was Assistant Chief of the Bureau of Navigation from April 1935 to May 1938. Yamamoto was head of the Imperial Japanese Navy Aviation Bureau from December 2nd, 1935 to December 1st, 1936.

HMS Furious along with HMS Glorious turn into the wind and launch their first 40 swordfish bi plane torpedo bombers armed with dummy torpedoes and dummy bombs and head towards Scapa flow. HMS Hood and the cruiser HMS Norfolk along with two destroyers detach from the battlegroup and steam 50 miles south of the carriers.
