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

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

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

Here’s another one:

My son died seven months ago at the age of 24 how do I know if he’s in heaven and can he see me and hear me and why have I not gotten any signs yet from him or Mom just not seeing the signs how do I know if he’s OK how do I know if he’s happy?

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