Provoked into action by Operation Forager, code-name for the American landing in the Marianas Islands, the Japanese fleet committed six carriers with over 400 fighters, dive-bombers, and torpedo planes to the First Battle of the Philippine Sea. The air battle on 19 June 1944, now called the Marianas ""Turkey Shoot,"" became one of the US Navy's greatest victories of World War II when the fighter pilots of Task Force 58 shot down 369 enemy aircraft. Alerted to a possible enemy air strike, Vraciu led the second division of VF-16 from the USS Lexington and soon sighted over 50 enemy aircraft approaching the task force. He immediately led his outnumbered division into the Japanese formation and, within 8 minutes, single-handedly shot down six aircraft. Amazingly, he used only 360 of the 2,400 rounds of ammunition aboard his F6F Hellcat during the melee. For his gallantry and superior effort during this battle, Alexander Vraciu was awarded the Navy Cross."
