54. Fire aboard Enterprise , 14 January 1969, in Hawaiian waters The massive fire started when a Zuni rocket accidentally exploded under the wing of an F-4. Some of the subsequent 18 explosions were 500-lb. bombs cooking of in multiples, leaving 20-foot holes in the armored flight deck. Losses totalled 28 dead, 343 wounded, and 15 aircraft destroyed. Tűz az Enterprise hordozón , 1969. January 14. Havaii vizek Hatalmas tűz keletkezett, amikor egy F-4 szárnya alatt lévő Zuni rakéta véletlenül felrobbant és sorozatban robbantotta a fedélzeten lévő gépek 500-lb. bombáját. A 18 robbanás 20 láb hosszúságú rést nyitott a páncélos repülőfedélzeten. 28-an meghaltak, 343-an megsebesültek, és 15 repülőgép megsemmisült.

Sunk in the Atlantic Ocean, off the Virginia coast, on 14 May 2005, after 25 days of tests consisting of underwater and surface simulated attacks on the ship. These tests were intended to provide valuable data on survivability for the next generation of aircraft carriers. According to the December 4, 2006 issue of "Navy Times," ex- America was in one piece and sitting on its keel, some 476 miles east of Charleston, SC, and about 400 miles west of Bermuda, and 16,860 feet (5,139 meters) below the surface. This information was obtained by the USS America Carrier Veterans Association on October 30, through a Freedom of Information Act request.

61. Atlanti-ócean, 2005. május 14. — A leszerelt ex-USS America (CV-66) repülőgéphordozót a következő generációs hordozó kifejlesztése érdekében, a CVN-21 projekt keretében süllyesztik el. A hagyományos dízelmotorral hajtott repülőgéphordozó, melyet 1996-ban vontak ki az aktív szolgálatból, Michael Sandberg fényképével hagy nyomot az U.S. haditengerészeti-fotótárban. Atlantic Ocean, May 14, 2005 The decommissioned aircraft carrier, ex-USS America (CV-66) was "laid to rest" after being sunk at sea. America was the target of a series of tests designed to test new defense and damage control systems for the CVN-21 program. The conventionally-powered carrier left active service in 1996.
