The USS Enterprise (CV-6) was the most decorated warship in WWII. She outlived her sisters USS Yorktown (CV-5) and USS Hornet (CV-8) who were sunk at Midway and Santa Cruz in '42. She was the last of the Yorktown class fleet carriers. An attempt to save her as a memorial failed, and she was scrapped in 1959. Currently, the most decorated US warship might be the battleship USS New Jersey, this warship is the only Vietnam Veteran Battleship, holding 19 battlestars. She fired almost 6,000 rounds of 16 inch shells at communist target in Vietnam; more shells than she did in WWII and Korea combined.
