Summary
The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Saratoga (CV-3) during her last run as a troop transport in operation "Magic Carpet".
Original caption: "The USS Saratoga (CV-3) enroute to the States with about 30,000 veterans aboard. This is her last trip as a transport."
Note: Of course, the carrier could not accommodate 30,000 people at once. By the end of her "Magic Carpet" service, Saratoga had brought home a total of 29,204 Pacific war veterans, more than any other individual ship.
