First clash of carriers was the Battle of Coral Sea.
"Remember the Maine" was the battle cry that inspired US to enter the Spanish-American War in 1898. I guess there was a similar battle cry about Pearl Harbor but it was probably "Remember Pearl Harbor" and did not relate to any ship, as many ships were destroyed there.
Find em and hit em (first). This was only the SECOND time in history that "Aircraft Carriers" would be used as a capital ship engagement (the primary battle vessels). History's first clash of these new weapons (Aircraft Carriers) was at the Battle of the Coral Sea.
Fleet carrier USS Yorktown and destroyer USS Hammann.
