Just to be techinical, the correct term is "Fast Carriers;" "Fast Attack" was a designation given to American nuclear-powered attack submarines.

But why they chose the Wasp to represent all US carriers (and then did not name her the Wasp) is beyond me, since that was the least representative (only 1 built) and shortest lived (5 months, only 2 on the PTO) of all the US carriers in the PTO, whereas there were 2 Lexingtons, 3 Yorktowns, and 14 Essexs. Sort of like the whole deal with the Medals . . .

Not so much misnaming, as the wrong period, CVA being a post-war term. Alot of the Essex class were re-designated as CVAs in the 1950s
