The USS America (CVA/CV-66) was one of four Kitty Hawk-class super carriers built for the United States Navy in the 1960s. Commissioned in 1965, she spent most of her career in the Atlantic and Mediterranean, but did make three Pacific deployments serving in the Vietnam War. She also served in operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm.
America held the distinctions of being the last U.S. supercarrier built not named after a person, and being the first large aircraft carrier since Operation Crossroads in 1946 to be expended in weapons tests. In 2005, she was scuttled southeast of Cape Hatteras, after four weeks of tests, despite a large protest of former crew-members who wanted to see her instituted as a memorial museum. She was the largest warship ever to be sunk.

За годы казачества очень многие события оставили след в народной памяти. Это и Переяславская рада, на которой была утверждена протекция Московского царства над Украиной, и раскол Украины, руина, произошедшие после рады. Это упразднение Гетманщины в 1764 году и разрушение Запорожской Сечи в 1775 году. Но были и более ранние события, в оценках которых в настоящее время нет общей точки зрения.
