USS Lexington and the March to War in the Pacific: On March 4, 2018, an expedition funded by philanthropist Paul Allen discovered the shattered remnants of the aircraft carrier USS Lexington two miles below the ocean’s surface in the Coral Sea. The first full-sized fleet carrier to serve in the U.S. Navy, the Lady Lex had sunk to its watery grave nearly seventy-six years earlier, fighting the first, frenetic carrier-on-carrier battle in history.
