"An aircraft carrier is a noble thing. It lacks almost everything that seems to denote nobility, yet deep nobility is there..... It doesn't cut through the water like a cruiser, knifing romantically along. It doesn't dance and cavort like a destroyer. It just plows... Yet a carrier is a ferocious thing, and out of it's heritage of action has grown its nobility. I believe that every Navy in the world has its No. 1 priority the destruction of enemy carriers. That's a precarious honor, but its a proud one."
--Ernie Pyle, War Correspondent aboard the USS Cabot in 1945
