Klappentext
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Ryh was a Japanese Light aircraft carrier. Sole ship of her class, she was converted from a submarine tender. During WW2 she operated mainly as aircraft transport but did participate in the First Battle of the Philippine Sea. The Ryh started life as the submarine depot ship Taigei, and was taken out of service in December 1941 for conversion into a light aircraft carrier. During conversion at Yokosuka, the Ryh gained the distinction of being the only major warship damaged in the Doolittle Raid on 18 April 1942. She received one direct hit from a 500 lb (227 kg) bomb on the bow, plus several small incendiary bomb hits.
