Historically, the most unfortunate thing the United States ever did, was to scrap their most decorated USN warship, the USS Enterprise CV-6. The Enterprise was saved for preservation just after WWII, but unfortunately she was re-activated for the Korean War in 1950; for reasons unknown, the Enterprise did not return to "preservation status" after the Korean War and the US public didn't seem to have the interest in raising the necessary funds to save her, even though USN Admiral Halsey led the fight to preserve her. The Enterprise was scrapped in 1959.
The Enterprise was the ONLY Survivor of the Yorktown class aircraft carriers during WWII: USS Yorktown was sunk at the Battle of Midway and the USS Hornet was sunk during the Battle of Santa Cruz (Islands).
With the original fighting Enterprise gone, the only "most decorated" US warship today is, and also the only Vietnam War veteran battleship, the Iowa class fast battleship USS New Jersey.
