USS Antietam (CV-36)
USS ''Antietam'' (CV/CVA/CVS-36) was one of 24 s built during and shortly after World War II for the United States Navy. The ship was the second US Navy ship to bear the name, and was named for the American Civil War Battle of Antietam (Maryland). ''Antietam'' was commissioned in January 1945, too late to actively serve in World War II. After serving a short time in the Far East, she was decommissioned in 1949. She was soon recommissioned for Korean War service, and in that conflict earned two battle stars. In the early 1950s, she was redesignated an attack carrier (CVA) and then an antisubmarine warfare carrier (CVS). After the Korean War she spent the rest of her career operating in the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Mediterranean. From 1957 until her deactivation, she was the Navy's training carrier, operating out of Florida.
''Antietam'' was fitted with a port sponson in 1952 to make her the world's first true angled-deck aircraft carrier. However, she received no major modernizations other than this, and thus throughout her career largely retained the classic appearance of a World War II ''Essex''-class ship. She was decommissioned in 1963, and sold for scrap in 1974.
==Construction and Commissioning==
''Antietam'' was one of the "long-hull" ''Essex''-class ships. The keel was laid on 15 March 1943 at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. The ship was launched on 20 August 1944 sponsored by Mrs. Millard E. Tydings, the wife of Senator Tydings of Maryland. ''Antietam'' was commissioned on 28 January 1945, with Captain James R. Tague in command.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.navy.mil/navydata/ships/carriers/cv-hist2c.html )〕
