English: USS Lexington (CV-2) under air attack on 8 May 1942 during the Battle of the Coral Sea, as photographed from a Japanese plane. Heavy black smoke from her stack and white smoke from her bow indicate that the view was taken just after those areas were hit by bombs. Destroyer in the lower left appears to be USS Phelps (DD-360).
