Entering World War II as the second of the great Essexclass
carriers, the Lexington destroyed more than one thousand Japanese
aircraft, sank more than a million tons of enemy shipping in the
Pacific, and was the first American warship to enter Tokyo Bay in
victory. Decommissioned on November 8, 1991, the Lexington was the
last World War II - era aircraft carrier to retire from duty. This
complete photographic tour of the ship, now a museum in Corpus
Christi, Texas, gives readers a close look at the technological
wonders and history of U.S. Naval aviation.
