USS Hornet Speaker Series: Battle of Midway

This discussion explores Midway as a turning point in naval history, highlighting the rise of aircraft carriers and airpower as dominant forces in maritime warfare. It traces the strategic and tactical impact of carriers during the 1942 battle and examines how the lessons from Midway shaped U.S. naval doctrine. The discussion then shifts forward to today’s operational environment, focusing on how the modern carrier strike group projects power, ensures maritime security, and operates in contested environments like the Strait of Hormuz, where geography, geopolitics, and emerging threats converge.
