Arsenal: Lexington-class Aircraft Carriers in the Pacific War, 1942–1944
Arsenal: Lexington-class Aircraft Carriers in the Pacific War, 1942–1944 follows the big, fast flattops that helped push carrier warfare to the center of World War II, from Coral Sea and Guadalcanal to the long campaigns that refined deck cycles, air group tactics, and damage control the hard way. Listeners hear how Lexington and Saratoga were born as battlecruisers, rebuilt into floating airfields, and tested in early carrier-versus-carrier combat, with attention to crew life, machinery, radar, and evolving air wings. Arsenal is the Friday feature of Dispatch: U.S. Military History Magazine, and this podcast is developed by Trackpads.com.
