Aircraft Carrier USS America sent to Atlantic's Bottom

(AP) - The retired aircraft carrier USS America is resting on the Atlantic's bottom, sunk by the Navy through a series of explosions.

The 84,000-ton warship served the Navy for 32 years.

Pat Dolan, a spokeswoman for Naval Sea Systems Command, told the Daily Press the America was sunk May 14th through a series of explosions that flooded the ship and sent it to the bottom of the ocean, 58 miles off the coast.

The Navy did not announce the sinking until days later, and Dolan did not immediately return a telephone message left today by The Associated Press.

No warship this size or larger had ever been sunk, and plans to sink the America had been an emotional proposal for many veterans.

Lee McNulty is president of the USS America Foundation, which wanted to turn the ship into a museum. McNulty says the carrier should have been saved because it was called America.

Since its decommissioning in 1996, the America has been moored with other inactive warships at a Navy yard in Philadelphia.

It costs taxpayers $1,800,000.00 just to clean a ship so that it is environmentally sound to destroy or sink. The costs of dismantling are recouped through recycling the boat. 90%+ of the steel used for new ships is recycled from these old ships. Shipbuilders prefer the old steel. Steel from the World Trade Center was used on the stem of the USS New York.

I love TLC and the Discovery Channel.

They could always get beached in India for them to cut to peices by hand.

I love Discovery as well...
