One common USS Hornet ghost story is about the apparition of a sailor seen on the ship's deck at night. Some claim to have seen a figure in old - fashioned naval uniform, just standing there as if on watch. It gives an eerie feeling, like the sailor's spirit is still tied to the ship.
Sure. There are tales of a spectral figure in the engine room. It is said that the figure sometimes appears to be tinkering with the machinery, as if it still has a job to do. This might be related to the importance of the engine room during the ship's active service. The crew back then would have been constantly working there to keep the ship running, and perhaps their spirits are still lingering, attached to the place where they spent so much time.

The aircraft carrier HMSSVictorious was the second aircraft carrier of the Brilliance class. It was built in 1937 at the Vickers-Armstrong Shipyard in Newcastle upon Tyne and launched in 1939. Although it was delayed for a while, it was officially commissioned in 1941 due to the increased demand for British escort missions in the Atlantic Sea War. She participated in many famous operations, such as the siege of the Bismarck in 1941 - 1942, the Arctic Escort, and the Pedestal Operation. She was lent to the United States Navy from February to August 1943, renamed the USS Robin, and served as a member of the Third Fleet in the Southwest Pacific Ocean. In 1944, she participated in the tungsten war, which severely damaged the battleship Tieshi. As the threat of the German Navy was eliminated, it was redeployed to the Far East Fleet and then to the British Pacific Fleet to participate in the final battle against Japan. After the war, from 1950 to 1958, it was transferred to reserve service and modified to jet carrier aircraft, including the construction of a new superstructure above the hangar deck, a new inclined deck, a new boiler, the installation of 984 radar, data link, and heavy shipboard computer. In 1967, due to a variety of factors (the reduction of British naval investment, the end of the Indian-Malaysia confrontation, and the fire during the modification), it was retired three to five years ahead of schedule and dismantled in 1969. During World War II, the number of aircraft carriers was relatively high among the British aircraft carriers. They played an important role in many battles in World War II, such as the Indian Ocean Battle and the Battle of Sri Lanka. They were hit three times in the Battle of Pearl Harbor and successfully returned to the base to repair, winning the reputation of being "invincible". In the 1950 - 1958 modification, complete modifications were carried out, such as the removal of the upper structure above the hangar deck, the widening and deepening of the hull, the reconstruction of the hangar and the inclined deck, the installation of new catapults, etc. In 1962 - 1963, two double 76mm guns were installed, all 40mm guns were removed, and the flight deck was enlarged and strengthened. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
Absolutely. The story of USS Indianapolis is based on actual events. Many records and accounts exist to verify its authenticity.
The USS Indianapolis story presented in Jaws has elements of truth, but movies often take creative liberties. The actual incident was quite complex and the film simplifies and dramatizes it to some extent.
The USS Indianapolis was a United States Navy ship. It had a tragic fate. After delivering parts for the atomic bomb, it was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine. Many sailors died immediately, and those who survived faced sharks, thirst, and exposure at sea for days before being rescued. Only a fraction of the crew survived this harrowing ordeal.
