At the Battle of Midway, which took place in June 1942, the USS Yorktown was heavily damaged by Japanese aircraft during the battle. Despite the damage, the crew managed to repair the ship sufficiently to launch aircraft for further operations. However, after being attacked again by Japanese torpedo bombers and dive bombers, the Yorktown was ultimately sunk on June 7, 1942. The loss of the Yorktown was significant, but the battle itself was a decisive victory for the United States, shifting the balance of naval power in the Pacific.
