The most decorated warship is US Navy history was the USS Enterprise (CV-6). She was approximately 820 feet long, displaced about 20,000 tons, and carried between 70 and 90 aircraft, depending upon the size of the airplane (dive bombers, torpedo bombers, or Wildcat fighters). Enterprise was a "Yorktown" class carrier, with two sisters: USS Hornet & USS Yorktown. Hornet was sunk at the Battle of Santa Cruz Islands and Yorktown was sunk at the Battle of Midway. Enterprise was scrapped in 1959.
