Were there any friendly fire incidents involving American submarines, aircraft carriers, or battleships during World War II or World War I?

Oh yeah. These kinds of incidents are quite common even in modern war, let alone back then.

Here’s another one:

USS Pompano was mistakenly bombed by aircraft from USS Enterprise but managed to escape.

Why are US customs agents so talkative? I cringed hard when a US customs agent asked me if I was on vacation. He doesn’t need to know why I went to another country as long as I am a U.S. citizen.

USS Tang pictured above, was an ace US submarine… until she literally sank herself with a circular running torpedo.
