Ship Bio #1: Class and Service

U.S.S. Yorktown (CV-10) is the 2nd sister ship of the Essex-class aircraft carriers. The Essex-class are the new class of aircraft carriers, they're constructed during the naval incidents of the two Yorktown-class aircraft carriers and the near-loss of USS Missouri in the Battle on the Santa Cruz Islands. 

U.S.S. Yorktown (CV-10) originally was named U.S.S. Bonhomme Richard, however it was renamed after the lead ship of the Yorktown-class, U.S.S. Yorktown (CV-5).

Though originally, new ships will earn the names of former ships when it was sunk or scrapped, however, due to the battleship USS Missouri's influence, they decide to retain the plan to rename the carrier to its predecessor.

In 1944, from Australia to the Philippines, both CV-5 and CV-10 fought alongside against Imperial Japanese Naval forces throughout the Liberation of the Philippines.

Throughout the 2nd World War in the Pacific Theater, U.S.S. Yorktown (CV-10) earned 12 battle stars and the Presidential Unit Citation.

Throughout her career after the war, she went through extensive modifications such as more-advanced technologies, an angled flight deck, and new aircraft. She completed her conversion that fall, and on 14 October was placed back in full commission. 

She fought in the Korean War and then the Vietnam War.

Though a long career for an aircraft carrier, she was decommisioned on June 27, 1970 and was stricken from the Navy List on June 1, 1973. 

During 1974, the Navy Department approved the donation of Yorktown to the Patriot's Point Development Authority, Charleston, South Carolina. She was towed from Bayonne, New Jersey, to Charleston in June 1975. She was formally dedicated as a memorial on the 200th anniversary of the Navy, 13 October 1975.

Although her mother-ship, U.S.S. Yorktown (CV-5) was scrapped on July 4, 1948, CV-10 will carry both her mother's legacy and hers for the future generation as on 1986, U.S.S. Yorktown (CV-10) is officially declared as a National Historic Landmark. She was preserved as a Museum ship at Patriots Point in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.

She will be soon recommissioned when the Battle of RIMPAC 2012 happened where she alongside her sisters and comrades fought against an Alien Armada Fleet from a distant planet. She was taken extensive repairs after the battle.

Unfortunately, she sunk on Bikini Atoll on July 7, 2054 along with the rest of the warships that are museum ships. Operation CrossXs was the end for the World War 2 Pacific Naval Fleet that fought against a more advanced alien fleet back in 2012.
