Summary
| Description | The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Eaton (DDE-510) following collision with the battleship USS Wisconsin (BB-64). On 6 May 1956, off the Virginia Capes, Wisconsin collided with the Eaton in thick fog while steaming at high speed (20 knots). The collision caused serious damage to both ships, with the Eaton contacting the battleship's bow on the starboard side forward of the bridge, which crushed to port side and broke the keel. |
