Fall Outing/Patriot's Point (USS Yorktown)


  • Patriot's Point 40 Patriots Point Road Mount Pleasant, SC, 29464 United States (map)

The USS YORKTOWN (CV-10) was the tenth aircraft carrier to serve in the United States Navy. Under construction as BON HOMME RICHARD, this new Essex-class carrier was renamed in honor of YORKTOWN (CV-5) sunk at the epic Battle of Midway (June 1942). Built in an amazing 16 ½ months at Newport News, Virginia, YORKTOWN was commissioned on April 15, 1943. World War II’s famous “Fighting Lady” would participate significantly in the Pacific offensive that began in late 1943 and ended with the defeat of Japan in 1945.

Join Pack 15 as we tour the Fighting Lady, enjoy activities and sleep overnight aboard this amazing carrier.
