Hi Katherine: Here is a web sit for the Franklin. I was at Ulithi when the Franklin was there. We went on a work party and went right by it. We could not see the damage to the flight deck but it had plenty of damage on the side.It took fifty years to see what the damage was on the flight deck.The history channel had it on quite a few times. Here is the site. http://www.navsource.org/http://www.navsource.org/
Click on Carriers and then scroll down to the Franklin.click an Dansf at the bottom for the history. If you have any trouble let me know and I will try to correct it.Good luck
Tony
