How did the carrier task force come to be the premiere weapon in the US Navy’s arsenal, eclipsing the mighty battleship? Today Indy takes a look at how the Navy worked overtime to produce flattops, train the men who sailed them, and develop new doctrine for the war against Japan. What does the future hold for the carrier force?
