USS North Carolina’s FIRST Battle: The Sky Was on Fire!

Witness the USS North Carolina’s first battle on August 24, 1942, as she faced 80 Japanese aircraft while escorting the USS Enterprise during the Battle of the Eastern Solomons.

When enemy bombers and torpedo planes attacked, North Carolina unleashed a massive wall of anti-aircraft fire so intense that even Admiral Kinkaid thought she was burning!
