- Description
- This week in military history we recognize the inescapable lethality of the American warfighter.
In 1942 naval aviators changed warfare forever at the Battle of the Coral Sea by delivering decisive over-the-horizon strikes against the enemy fleet without ever making visual contact. Decades later in 2011 elite special operators hunted down and eliminated the mastermind of the 9/11 terror attacks.
We also remember the launch of the first USO show in 1941 to support the troops. We back our warfighters unconditionally so they can focus on their sole mission.

- Description
- U.S. forces operating in the Arabian Sea enforced naval blockade measures against an Iranian-flagged cargo vessel attempting to sail toward an Iranian port, April 19.
Guided-missile destroyer USS Spruance (DDG 111) intercepted M/V Touska as it transited the north Arabian Sea at 17 knots enroute to Bandar Abbas, Iran. American forces issued multiple warnings and informed the Iranian-flagged vessel it was in violation of the U.S. blockade.
After Touska’s crew failed to comply with repeated warnings over a six-hour period, Spruance directed the vessel to evacuate its engine room. Spruance disabled Touska’s propulsion by firing several rounds from the destroyer’s 5-inch MK 45 Gun into Touska’s engine room.
