Description
|
|
|
|
For nearly a hundred years, these steel, gray-skinned battlewagons have fought off everything from dive-bombing Kamikazes to Al-Qaeda. Some returned from war to become major tourist attractions (USS Arizona) for new generations. Others (USS New York) continue to patrol the world's trouble spots. Each episode in this four-disc set profiles the complete combat history and evolving technology of a single American ship, often through multiple conflicts. Examined here are battleships, destroyers, aircraft carriers, submarines, and such specialized ships as the LST (Landing Ship Tank) 325 and the "Liberty Ship" freighter USS Jeremiah O'Brien.
