One crack occurred at the juncture of bulkhead 29 and watertight longitudinal 2-1/2, opening up adjoining compartments, A-6-W, A-7-V, A-11-V and A-901-V. 3 spring bearing was torn from the vertical plates, one foot supporting the shell of No.
The second deck was peppered with holes and the third and fourth decks were also penetrated.

The bomb was pushed overboard soon after it hit.H2-2. A patch was welded over the hole at frame 136, spring bearings were realigned, and cracked cast iron feet on turbines and spring bearings were repaired with metal-lock or brazing. While in a shallow power dive to about 3,500 feet, each plane released three bombs. Gun crews and repair party personnel threw over the side ammunition which had been heated.J6-1.

** Splashes were 100 to 125 feet high. Later in January she sailed north to participate in the first offensive U.S. carrier action of the war - the strike against the Marshall and Gilbert Islands on 1 February. 8 and 10, and fell into the sea. Both the low and the high pressure accumulator tanks were forced away from the starboard bulkhead in D-523-E, the oil storage tank was crushed and the bottom blown out, and motors were submerged in oil and salt water. The bombs were estimated by the ship to be general purpose with instantaneous fuzes, weighing between 100 and 200 pounds and were probably the 63 Kg Type 99 No.

Also, the forward bull gear bearing of No.

Tanks C-34-V, D-2-V and D-10-F, between torpedo bulkheads 4 and 5, were opened to the sea through leaky seams in the shell. 5 graving dock on 23 July. Other fragments traveled upward and through the flight deck and No. After her return, she operated along the east coast and in the Caribbean until April 1939, when she was ordered to duty in the Pacific. The main had been segregated at frame 111 port and starboard prior to the action, creating 4 separate sections.

As in the Battle of Santa Cruz, cast iron failed when subjected to shock.

Fires were extinguished by 0730, but about 2000 tons of firefighting water had flooded spaces between frames 26 and 38 up to the hangar deck.J1-5. CONFIDENTIAL U.S.S. Enterprise put into Pearl Harbor for fuel and supplies on the night of 8 December, and sailed early the next morning to patrol against possible additional attacks in the Hawaiian Islands. ENTERPRISE's planes, operating from Henderson Field, gave air support to U.S. ground forces on Guadalcanal and made strikes against the Japanese Fleet in the battle which culminated in the defeat of a superior Japanese force by two U.S. battleships and escorting destroyers in the night surface engagement of 14-15 November, and the full retreat of the remnants of the Japanese Fleet on 15 November.G1-3. Again, Enterprise made aviation history, when she launched the first night radar bombing attack from a U.S. carrier.

Except where torn open by the impact of the plane's engine, the welded blister plating did not develop cracks or tears from the first near-miss.

Deck longitudinals broken at their connections to deck beams were temporarily strengthened by welding short sections of 2-1/2-inch by 2-1/2-inch angle to the beam, the longitudinal and the overhead. On 13 November, aviators from Enterprise helped to sink the damaged battleship Hiei. On 28 November 1941 she departed Pearl Harbor for Wake Island with twelve Marine Corps fighter planes to be delivered to the newly completed airfield there.B3-1.

ZEKE-52's, the most commonly used at first, were supplemented by many other types later on.

Although such an arrangement provides adequate protection against the failure of one unit during peacetime operations, war inflicted casualties will generally affect both units unless they are separated at least by a watertight bulkhead. 4 shaft was slightly bent, the bow in the shaft causing its Nos. Many significant changes were made in the arrangements so that ENTERPRISE and her sistership, B2-1. A near-miss bomb detonated about 8 feet below the waterline, 10 feet from the starboard side at frame 129-1/2, deflecting the shell plating below the armor, flooding three fuel tanks and causing shock damage to No. As in the action of 24 August, flooding of watertight compartments through piping, ventilation ducts, etc., occurred. At the close of World War I the potentialities of Naval air-power were recognized and in order to initiate development of a sound doctrine the collier B1-2. The hangar sprinkling system was very effective in limiting the spread of the fires of 20 March and 14 May 1945 and mechanical foam rapidly extinguished the gasoline fires of 20 March and 11 April 1945.L2-1.
The port gasoline main was crushed and unfit for use between frames 62 and 106; the starboard main was destroyed by fire and fragments between frames 26 and 38 and various risers, valves and fueling stations were destroyed. On 28 May, Enterprise sortied as Rear Admiral Raymond A. Spruance's flagship with orders "to hold Midway and inflict maximum damage on the enemy by strong attrition tactics".

41 were damaged by shock and limit switches in the hoists were grounded by salt water.J3-15. 37 directors lost power by the severance of normal and alternative power supply cables in the elevator trunk.

Below the fourth deck, in the void spaces, floors were buckled from the stern to as far forward as frame 188 and frames 189 through 195 were variously bent or broken.E2-12.
