FULL Restoration of the USS Wasp (CV-7), You won’t believe the ending 😳🔥🇺🇸 Commissioned on 25 April 1940, USS Wasp (CV-7) entered World War II as one of the U.S. Navy’s most vulnerable carriers. She delivered fighters to Malta in 1942, then rushed to the Pacific. On 15 September 1942, during the Guadalcanal campaign, Japanese torpedoes struck Wasp. Fires raged beyond control. Ordered abandoned, she sank that night—her mission complete, her crew’s courage unquestioned. #NavalHistory #USSGeral
