What was a good thing that happened during the Battle of Midway?
The good thing for the USN was catching the IJN carriers re-arming & re-fuelling. The good thing for the IJN was their last carrier had the courage and skill to launch a successfull attack at the USS Yorktown. Had it not been for that last carrier, the IJN would've lost 4 carriers and sunk none; at least they were able to record one sunk US flat-top, thanks to their last carrier...which was ultimately sunk by US planes soon afterward.

There might be some proof scientists say that mabey if they had not turned at the last second they might not have sunk because they were going at such a slow speed. And they might have gotten a dent but the boat would probably not have sunk.

What was the last US Navy ship to be sunk by an enemy in WW2?
The last Navy ship to be officially recorded as being sunk by enemy action in WW2 was the USS Bullhead (SS-332), on 6 August 1945, the day Hiroshima was attacked. A Balao-class submarine, the Bullhead was sunk by engagement from a Japanese Army aircraft, which dropped depth charges on the Bullhead, claiming 2 direct hits. The geographic area she was in when sunk is believed to have reduced her radar range, and thus prevented her from detecting the plane until it was too late.Though the initial answer to this question mentioned the Indianapolis, that answer is incorrect. The Indianapolis was sunk by a Japanese submarine on 29 July 1945, over a week prior to the Bullhead. The last U.S. ship sunk was the submarine USS Bullhead SS 332 sunk by the Japanese aircraft on August 6, 1945 at the west end of Lombok Strait.
