The Avenger originated from the 'Arsenal of Democracy' and proved to be one of the best examples of naval aircraft. Emerging from the race to replace the torpedo bombers of the 1930s, the Avengers can be seen in action in rare footage from the Marianas Turkey Shoot of June 1944, and there are interviews with original crew members who recall their operational service on carriers.
