Descrizione

She was the mother of all aircraft carriers in WWII - the USS Enterprise. She was commissioned before the war, and was the only carrier to be front and center in every major sea battle in the Pacific Theatre.Over the course of four years, the carrier, and the men who crewed it, engaged in some of the fiercest, multi-front battles ever seen in modern combat. Each battle was marked by intense firepower, instinct, and a 360-coordination between the carrier, the destroyers, the aircraft above, and the submarines below.This series will follow the Enterprise and its men from the start of the war through to the last battle. As the war went on, the ship changed, the men changed, and the battles were never the same. She becomes the most decorated ship of World War II while fighting against Japanese forces in the Pacific.
