Summary[edit]

Description

The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Intrepid (CV-11) burns after being hit by Japanese kamikaze suicide planes off the Philippines on 25 November 1944. Two kamikazes crashed into Intrepid, killing sixty-six men and causing a serious fire. The ship remained on station, however, and the fires were extinguished within two hours. She was detached for repairs the following day, and reached San Francisco on 20 December.
