    Really not sure how to say it better than none were lost to enemy action. Any scuttling by US forces would have been the result of enemy action but let's put it this way. Not one Essex Class carrier was lost due to any reason in WWII, Korea, or Vietnam. Several have been sunk to create artificial reefs after they lived out their useful lives.
