25 October 1944 - The USS Langley (CVL-27), an Independence-class light aircraft carrier, played a pivotal role in one of the most decisive naval engagements of World War II: the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Tasked with launching aircraft to intercept the Japanese fleet, the Langley sent F6F Hellcats from Fighter Squadron VF-44 and TBM Avengers from Torpedo Squadron VT-44 into battle. This operation was part of Task Force 38, commanded by Vice Admiral Marc A. Mitscher, which was focused on halting the Japanese Mobile Force as it attempted to defend the Philippines and counter the Allied landings at Leyte.
