* USS Franklin (CV-13) disaster
* Japanese dive bomber attack

The front page has a banner heading: "Detroiters Share Carrier's Epic Struggle" with subheads and related photo. (see images) This disaster happened a few months earlier but this is when it was first made public.
Complete with 16 pages, light toning and a little wear at the margins, generally nice.
