Beschreibung
U. S. sea forces battled across the world's oceans during some of World War II's most important naval campaigns. Sailors escorted supply ships across the Atlantic Ocean in the Battle of the Atlantic, protecting vital cargo from German submarines and keeping Allied armies supplied. In the Pacific, powerful aircraft carriers and warships faced off against Japan's navy in the Battle of the Philippine Sea, where skilled pilots and sailors helped secure a major victory that cleared the way for Allied advances toward Japan. Some of the most daring missions were carried out by the Navy's Frogmen, underwater demolition teams who swam ahead of invasions to scout beaches and clear dangerous obstacles for incoming troops. Fighting aboard massive battleships, swift destroyers, and submarines beneath the waves, U. S. sea forces used training, teamwork, and advanced technology to help the Allies defeat the Axis Powers. Hi-lo text and compelling photos give readers an inside look at the courage and determination of America's World War II sea forces.
