Meet USS America: The US Navy Aircraft Carrier The Navy Couldn’t Sink

USS America: The Unsinkable Aircraft Carrier? It was 110 years ago this past April 15 that the unsinkable RMS Titanic struck an iceberg and in less than three hours sank into the frigid waters of the North Atlantic. Several World War II warships earned the distinction of being “unsinkable” as well – most notably the United States Navy’s USS Nevada (BB-36), the battleship that served in two World Wars, survived the attack on Pearl Harbor, and wasn’t even sunk by a nuclear blast!
