Publisher's Synopsis
A story of an aircraft carrier, her pilots, and the men from the time her keel is laid until she is decommissioned after the war. This story covers actual battles that took place in the Pacific theatre during World War II. While the battles are real, the men and their ship are made from the mind of the writer. These brace pilots fly off the deck of a carrier and go to meet the enemy to shoot them out of the sky, just like the actual men did during the war. Two pilots meet after the ship is put to sea and become good friends and look after each other. Both men fall in love with girls from Honolulu, and one relationship turns out to be tragic. One man suffers from battle fatigue and faces a court martial, and the other goes on to become a hero, shooting down many Japanese planes.
