C-6... far more history. :)
 
Remember.. few of the original pre-war Carriers survived WW II.. basically 
the Enterprise and the Sara if memory serves.. Sara was sunk right after the 
war in the Bikini Islands nuclear tests.. CV-6 survived until 1959 when she 
was scrapped. Even Bull Halsey was up in arms about scrapping the "E".
