On this day, 83 years ago, August 24, 1942 (July 13, 1942, the battle for Guadalcanal. On August 24, 1942, the Japanese aircraft carrier Yusho broke out east of the Solomon Islands. The Japanese army dispatched a large-scale fleet to cover reinforcements heading towards Guadalcanal and attempted to lure the U.S. aircraft carrier task force into a decisive battle. At noon, the Japanese containment fleet led by the light aircraft carrier "Ryukang", which was acting as bait, was discovered by the US military and was attacked by 38 carrier-based aircraft from the US aircraft carrier "Saratoga". The "Ryukang" was continuously hit by 10 bombs and 1 torpedo and sank the next day. Two large aircraft carriers (Xianghe and Ruihe) of the Japanese army's main fleet took the opportunity to attack the US aircraft carrier, injuring the "Enterprise" aircraft carrier. At the same time, the advance group and reinforcement group of the Japanese fleet were attacked by American aircraft one after another. One troop carrier and one destroyer were sunk. The USS Chitose seaplane carrier and one cruiser and destroyer were injured. More than half of the army troops carried by the reinforcement fleet were lost and were forced to return to their starting point halfway, thus making the reinforcement of Guadalcanal a failure.
