Task Force 11 Totally Explained

Everything about Task Force 11 totally explained

Task Force (TF) 11 was a United States Navy task force in World War II. TF 11 was originally formed around Lexington (CV-2), then Saratoga (CV-3) until she was disabled by a Japanese torpedo in January 1942, then Lexington again for the Battle of the Coral Sea, then Saratoga after her repairs were completed.
   TF 11, as part of TF 61 along with TF 16, was involved in the Battle of the Eastern Solomons in late August 1942, but Saratoga was again crippled by a submarine, and the task force shrank to just the carrier and some destroyers.
   In September 1943, TF 11 was reorganized around light carriers Princeton (CVL-23) and Belleau Wood (CVL-24) under Rear Admiral Willis Augustus Lee, and supported landings on Baker Island and Howland Island.
   In early 1944, its task groups TG 11.1 and 11.2, now consisting of escort aircraft carriers, supported operations in the Marshall Islands.
   Task Force (TF) 11 was also the name of a joint Navy SEAL DEVGRU-US Army Delta Force team which has been operating under the US Joint Special Operations Command in Afghanistan searching for senior Taliban and Al-Qaeda leaders. The same units have formed a Task Force searching for high value targets in Iraq, which at various times has had designations including TF 145 and TF 626.
