While Scouting Six and Bombing Six circle overhead, Enterprise clears her flight deck in preparation for launching Torpedo Six, Battle of Midway, 4 June 1942. Though only four of the fourteen torpedo plane crews would return from this strike, VB-6 and VS-6 would destroy two Japanese carriers (and a third later in the day).
