Summary[edit]

Description The U.S. aircraft carrier USS Yorktown (CV-10). The U.S. National Archive dates this photo with "probably 1945". Facts date the photo more in 1943: The lack of the hull number "10" painted on the deck, together with the stripe painted along the deck, and the absence of the 40mm-quadruple guns added on the starboard side below the island in 1944. Around April 1944 Yorktown was painted in dazzle pattern 33/10A, on the photo she wears measure 21 in which the ship was painted up to 1944 and after February 1945. The photo was taken out of a Grumman TBF Avenger.
