The USS Lexington nicknamed "The Blue Ghost" is an Essex-class aircraft carrier built during World War II for the United States Navy. Originally intended to be name Cabot, word arrived during construction that the USS Lexington had been lost in the Battle of the Coral Sea. She renamed while under construction to commemorate the earlier ship. She was the fifth U.S. Navy ship to bear the name in honor of the Revolutionary War Battle of Lexington.
