There have been several USS Yorktowns. The previous one was sunk in World War 2 by the Japanese. The current aircraft carrier USS Yorktown was a replacement 60 years after that one sunk. There is an awesome web site by a Naval officer on the Yorktown. I have included his link for you because he covers the history and has photos on his site. He is also authoritative on the subject being a Naval Officer. See link below. Thanks for using answers com and wikianswers.
