Aircraft Carrier Intrepid - Naval History Special Edition

"The story of the Intrepid (CV-11) began when she was ordered in May 1940 as a member of the Essex class. She would be among one of the most advanced class of warships of her day, with speed, armament, newer and more capable aircraft, and modern radars that spelled victory in the Pacific.
