I was a second-class petty officer in the Navy at the time. We got the benefit of it being shown on ship’s TV.
An aircraft carrier is sort of a sitting duck for a nuke. The ship will probably survive, the crew won’t.
But I’ll bet they had a plan to “deal with” such an attack, making stupid and unlikely assumptions. They certainly did back when Mr. C. was on the Midway.
