Le porte-avion Lexington retrouvé

Le Lexington a participé à ce qu'on croit être la première bataille de porte-avions de l'histoire. Il a été coulé par les Japonais en 1942 et vient d'être retrouvé par l'équipe du milliardaire Paul Allen.

 "Along with the USS Yorktown, the Lexington and its fleet faced off against three Japanese aircraft carriers and is credited with helping to stop Japan's advances on New Guinea and Australia.

 The battle occurred just one month before the US Navy "surprised Japanese forces at the Battle of Midway and turned the tide of the war in the Pacific for good," according to Allen."
