USS Hornet (S01E06)

CV-8, one of the most valiant vessels of World War II, played a crucial role in the Doolittle Tokyo raid, while its successor, CV-12, faced 16 months of relentless combat, getting within 40 miles of Japan and establishing remarkable wartime achievements. Among its impressive records were 10 pilots attaining "Ace in One Day" status, the destruction of over 1,400 enemy aircraft, and a significant number of Hellcat pilots who earned their ace status.
