00:03.940 --> 00:07.780
The Yorktown crew did a tremendous job

00:07.790 --> 00:10.012
immediately going into action , putting

00:10.012 --> 00:12.290
out fires , rebuilding the flight deck ,

00:12.290 --> 00:15.070
which was still damaged . They were

00:15.070 --> 00:18.160
struck by a bomb at coral sea , which

00:18.160 --> 00:20.810
hit most center in the flight deck .

00:20.820 --> 00:23.490
Japanese already believed that your

00:23.490 --> 00:25.890
caramel was gone . The Yorktown was

00:25.890 --> 00:28.450
able to make it back to Pearl Harbor .

00:28.460 --> 00:31.340
Nimitz had repairs Rush three days and

00:31.340 --> 00:33.451
he had the ships going back up to the

00:33.451 --> 00:35.673
mid world . It's a little heartbreaking

00:35.673 --> 00:37.507
that the Yorktown eventually was

00:37.507 --> 00:39.618
torpedoed by a Japanese submarine and

00:39.618 --> 00:41.729
sank along with the destroyer Hammond

00:41.840 --> 00:43.618
during battle . In these combat

00:43.618 --> 00:45.618
circumstances , they have bombs and

00:45.618 --> 00:48.740
torpedoes going off all on . These guys

00:48.740 --> 00:51.770
were able to make effective repairs and

00:51.780 --> 00:53.780
put out the fires and keep the ship

00:53.780 --> 00:55.840
steaming . Yeah .
