NEWPORT NEWS, Va. -- The retired carrier USS America sits about 320 miles southeast of Ocracoke, N.C., and more than three miles below the Atlantic Ocean, the Navy has revealed. The location of the 1,037-foot, 71,886-ton vessel, scuttled by the Navy in May 2005, had been closely guarded, but a Freedom of Information Act request submitted by the USS America Carrier Veterans Association prompted the disclosure.
