This may have been the time one of the other carriers on Yankee station caught fire and had to withdraw and Kittyhawk had to fill back in. That would suck.

I don't believe so. If you're thinking of the Forrestal fire, that fire happened about five years earlier. (The report does make mention of sabotage incidents on Ranger and Forrestal but the fire on Forrestal was accidental, not sabotage.)
