USS Yorktown (CV-5) was an aircraft carrier commissioned in the United States Navy from 1937 until she was sunk at the Battle of Midway in June 1942. Yorktown played an important part in the battle, assisting in the destruction of multiple enemy aircraft carriers, and absorbing the majority of enemy counter attacks. She was named after the Battle of Yorktown in 1781 and the lead ship of the Yorktown class which was designed after lessons learned from operations with the large converted battlecruiser Lexington class and the smaller purpose-built USS Ranger. She was sunk by Japanese submarine I-68 on 6 June 1942 during the Battle of Midway.Despite an intensive barrage and evasive maneuvering, three "Vals" scored hits. Two of them were shot down soon after releasing their bomb loads; the third went out of control just as his bomb left the rack. It tumbled in flight and hit just abaft the number two elevator on the starboard side, exploding on contact and blasting a hole about 10 feet (3 m) square in the flight deck. Splinters from the exploding bomb killed most of the crews of the two 1.1-inch (28 mm) gun mounts aft of the island and on the flight deck below. Fragments piercing the flight deck hit three planes on the hangar deck, starting fires. One of the aircraft, a Yorktown Dauntless, was fully fueled and carrying a 1,000 pounds (450 kg) bomb. Prompt action by LT A. C. Emerson, the hangar deck officer, prevented a serious fire by activating the sprinkler system and quickly extinguishing the fire.The second bomb to hit the ship came from the port side, pierced the flight deck, and exploded in the lower part of the funnel, in effect a classic "down the stack shot." It ruptured the uptakes for three boilers, disabled two boilers, and extinguished the fires in five boilers. Smoke and gases began filling the firerooms of six boilers. The men at Number One boiler remained at their post and kept it alight, maintaining enough steam pressure to allow the auxiliary steam systems to function.A third bomb hit the carrier from the starboard side, pierced the side of number one elevator and exploded on the fourth deck, starting a persistent fire in the rag storage space, adjacent to the forward gasoline stowage and the magazines. The prior precaution of smothering the gasoline system with carbon dioxide undoubtedly prevented the gasoline from igniting.While the ship recovered from the damage inflicted by the dive-bombing attack, her speed dropped to 6 knots (11 km/h; 6.9 mph); and then at 14:40, about 20 minutes after the bomb hit that had shut down most of the boilers, Yorktown slowed to a stop, dead in the water.

All orders will have a valid tracking number without a shadow of doubt. UPS SAE: We highly recommend this option considering currently high international shipping costs for large size products. Delivered to the United States through our own non-postal maritime transport channels, and then local UPS standby for final delivery. During this period, UPS could not see updates for about 15-25 days because it was still in transit. Once it arrived in the United States, the UPS tracking number will be updated accordingly.Items would be carried by SAL (NO REFUND*) or commercial express. SAL: *No refund for late arrival. Surface Air Lifted via China Post: about 25-65 days to most counties. Our average records are 17 to 45 days to the North America. Parts of west coastal cities in America have the best record for just 11 to 15 days. It is more economical for sending huge and heavy items.Surface Mail: *No refund for late arrival. Surface sea cargo ship via China Post. Same schedule as surface air mail.Once it is dispatched abroad, it would be delivered by your local national post like USPS, Canada Post, Australia Post, Royal Mail, or Deutsche Post, etc.In most cases, late delivery doesn’t mean the item was lost. The reason why we don’t refund for late arrival is from previous unhappy cases. As eBay’s concept ONLY allows 60 days of transaction duration, in a small portion of cases SAL took 65 days of delivery while the buyer raised the case meanwhile and got a full refund. After the parcel was delivered, hardly any buyer responded to our payment request message. We are doing serious business yet SAL’s efficacy during the midway is really out of our control. Commercial Express: DHL: about 3-7 days (individual countries or even longer). FedEx: As above. UPS: 30 days. TNT: about 7-20 days (individual countries or even longer). Note: Upon four commercial express services may require extra expensive postage. *SpeedPAK, eBay designated carrier denies accepting such over-sized parcel.
