She sank the USS Gambier Bay at Leyte Gulf. For *THAT* role, she was superlative. However, *THAT* role ceased to exist the day she was commissioned. Sad that the nation that revolutionized carrier/air warfare would continue to build a gun-fighter ship that they made obscelete. Her hand-trained AA guns were a nightmare and humans can't compete with hundred mile per hour aircraft.
