deepv Safety Officer Admiral Registered: 03/17/04 Posts: 6618 Loc: SoCal	Can troop get out and take some pictures? Can we send him some gas $$? Quote: Carrier Kitty Hawk heading for Bremerton THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BREMERTON, Wash. -- The Navy says the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk is leaving San Diego and will arrive Tuesday at Bremerton where it will be decommissioned in January. The 47-year-old ship is the Navy's last carrier powered by diesel fuel. For the past 10 years it was stationed at Yokosuka, Japan. It arrived in San Diego this summer. The Navy says the Kitty Hawk, which had a crew of 2,800, will have a crew of about 400 in Bremerton to work on decommissioning.

FatDog Admiral Registered: 01/20/06 Posts: 1849 Loc: Lakeside, CA	my brother Paul was in town for a few days, he was on the KittyHawk as a pilot when he was in the Navy, and we stood there on the dock of the Bay looking at his old house for a couple hours last Thursday, he was sad that it looked so lifeless and was just a short number of days away from sitting down forever _________________________ 22' Launch, VP 8.1 pugs, boxer, bulldog "Let us cross over the river and sit under the shade of trees." ......
