Scene on board USS Yorktown (CV-5), during the Battle of Midway, June 1942, shortly after she was hit by three Japanese bombs on 4 June 1942. Dense smoke is from fires in her uptakes, caused by a bomb that punctured them and knocked out her boilers.(photo credit: 2nd Class William G. Roy/US Navy)ByJERUSALEM POST STAFFUpdated:
