A Yeoman's Tale : Bill Norberg and the USS Enterprise CV-6
No Customer Reviews
Years spent plying the waves in the dangerous waters of often enemy-held territory, Willard "Bill" Norberg, captain's yeoman of the USS Enterprise and his crew mates participated in more action than any other American ship during World War Two. The Big E, as she was affectionately called, dodged torpedoes, was attacked by enemy dive bombers, and strafed by fighter aircraft. Bombs and gunfire blew holes in her deck and hull, and she even survived several kamikaze suicide plane attacks. The mighty vessel would earn many nicknames, and garner more Battle Stars than any other American ship. Enduring much damage to their beloved home at sea, Bill and his shipmates suffered many losses, savored many victories, and would go on to successfully finish winning the war. The USS Enterprise earned the right to be called "The Most decorated Ship of World War Two." See history unfold before your eyes, as only someone who was there can describe.
