Comments by "Kenneth Dean Miller" (@kennethdeanmiller7324) on "'Armoured' and 'Unarmoured' Carriers - Survivability vs Strike Power" video.
What he was saying IS if it had not been for Nimitz wanting Yorktown available for the Midway battle, the amount of damage was equal to about 90 days in drydock. The plain & simple fact that crews got her ready to sail & fight in less than 3 days was a huge testament to the capabilities of the shipyard workers and the things they were doing to help the war efforts! Small wonder why Enterprise was known as the "Grey Ghost"! Several times the Japanese claimed to have sunk Enterprise when great damage control had saved her & great dock workers patched her up quickly so she could continue the fight! A lot of people claim that the US won simply cuz of their ability to produce massive numbers of war materials. Although that is true too, but it was also the fact that many, many people working, doing the very best they could do for as long as they could do it, to make sure that our soldiers & sailors had the very best to fight with & with unlimited quantities of quality products.
