USS Enterprise

USS Enterprise is probably the most decorated ship in the US navy. Completed in early 1939,Enterprise was due in at Pearl harbour on the night of December 6 but was saved by a storm. She fought in the battles of Midway,Eastern Solomons,Santa Cruz,Philippine sea,Cape Eugano and  many more!!!

During the battle of Okinawa,she was hit by a single kamikaze zero.The resulting explosion threw her forward elevator 400 feet into the air!!!!!She was still being repaired when japan surrendered. She was not in the Korean war(unlike many other carriers)and plans to preserve her as a memorial failed.But she is still preserved in history for how many battles she fought in and how many medals she won.

(P.S there is a show on YouTube called  battle 360 and it is all about Enterprise!!)

That's all for now
