L'USS Enterprise (CV-6), surnommé Big E, était le sixième porte-avions de la marine des États-Unis et le septième navire américain portant ce nom.
Lancé en 1936, c'était un navire de la classe Yorktown, et l'un des trois porte-avions américains mis en service avant la Seconde Guerre mondiale à survivre à la guerre. Il a participé à plus d'opérations de la guerre contre le Japon que n'importe quel autre navire américain. Ces actions incluent le raid de Doolittle sur Tokyo, la bataille de Midway, la bataille des Salomon orientales, la bataille des îles Santa Cruz et d'autres engagements air-mer au cours de la bataille de Guadalcanal, la bataille de la mer des Philippines et la bataille du golfe de Leyte. À trois reprises au cours de la guerre du Pacifique, le Japon a annoncé à tort que le navire avait été coulé.
L’Enterprise a obtenu vingt Battle stars, ce qui en fait le navire américain le plus décoré du conflit.
USS Enterprise (CV-6), was the seventh U.S. Navy vessel to bear the name. Colloquially referred to as the "Big E", she was the sixth aircraft carrier of the United States Navy. A Yorktown-class carrier, she was launched in 1936 and was one of only three American carriers commissioned prior to World War II to survive the war (the others being Saratoga and Ranger). She participated in more major actions of the war against Japan than any other US ship. These actions included the Battle of Midway, the Battle of the Eastern Solomons, the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands, various other air-sea engagements during the Guadalcanal Campaign, the Battle of the Philippine Sea, and the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
On three separate occasions during the Pacific War, the Japanese
announced that she had been sunk in battle, earning her the name "The
Grey Ghost". Enterprise earned 20 battle stars, the most for any U.S. warship in World War II and became the most decorated US ship of World War II.
