For aircraft carrier USS Enterprise, destined to become the most decorated ship of the Second World War, the Pacific War began on 7th December 1941. Returning from a Top Secret Mission, her air groups flew right into the attack on Pearl Harbour.

 

During the early weeks of the Second World War, as America suffered one defeat after another, USS Enterprise was one of the few shining lights as she sank enemy submarines, hit the Japanese Navy in the Marshall Islands, and supported the famous Doolittle Raid.

 

In Battle 360: Call To Duty, we bring this epic period of World War II history back to life, using groundbreaking evidence to show how USS Enterprise became such a powerful aircraft and the far-reaching effects this had on the war's outcome.
