The Wreck of the USS Oriskany
The USS Oriskany wreck has led to the formation of what is regarded as the biggest artificial reef in the world; it can be found at the Great Carrier Reef. The USS Oriskany was built for the United States Navy after the Second World War.
It used to be known as the Mighty O while it was in service but then it was decommissioned in 1975 after it had been used in different wars fought in the Pacific during conflicts with the Koreans and Vietnamese people. In 2006, the USS Oriskany was sunk about 24 miles off the coast of Florida.
