    Was on CAG2 to be used for shore fire and air support but fast trip to Norfolk to replace 8" barrel. Problem solved before fix completed so went to piddle in the Med vs back to Cuba.

    Active is a relative term. She sat stationary for a very long time.

    I guess after decommission there's a lot of things they do but she was on duty pretty close to that time.

    At the beginning of the millennium, “Big John” was sent again to the Persian Gulf to send sorties against Afghan targets. In 2005, the decision was made to decommission the ship due to upkeep costs. On March 23, 2007, the ship was formally decommissioned.

    She couldn’t make her deployment right around 9-11 as I recall. Major Engineering issues, and multiple flight deck issues got lots of people relieved.

    By the looks of things I wonder how much relief occurred in '75 & '76?

    She's got a namesake nuclear powered Ford Class CVA 79 due for launch in 2020.
    Here's a picture of how the ship looked when I was there (picture was taken in June 2003). The stacked conex boxes to the starboard near the bow on the pier was our offices/ hangouts for Puget Sound Naval Shipyard employees:

    One of the most ironic things most dont seem to grip is that for one of the first times in recent history ( as in since all 50 states were in the union) is that the power in the house of reps greatly shifted during a VERY GOOD economy. That is pretty rare.

    Now if trump loses in 2020 ( will directly be determined by how white people vote and how democrats agitate and pander to non-whites) and the economy has similar numbers there will be irony in that obama was reelected with a pretty bad economy. Does that mean obama was reelected because of affirmative action?

    Lmfao, no. I’m not watching anything else on pizzagate.


    If I were to believe ANY conspiracy related to any of this ridiculousness it would be that all of these conspiracies are started and spread to gullible people in order to create disorder within the US and make Trump supporters look like wakaloons.

    Don't LMFAO to hard until you explain the trials that are going on now. Jeffery Epstein, who they are trying to tie President Trump to, is in the courts now. Let's hope they can distance POTUS from this.
    The other one is Allison Mack, NXIVM, involving the Standard Hotel in LA, not far from the early morning helicopter activity. Adam Schiff also has a relationship with the standard Hotel. The news is Mack is naming names.
    I guess you can stick your head in the sand and ignore the children. But I guess the Fake News don't talk much about these though.

    I get my news from Gloria Borger and Poppy Harlow. They are the most trusted news sources on the internet. Far more credible that conspiracy nuts who want to raid a pizza parlor.

    Trust who you like but even the Fake News is talking about the Epstein and Mack trials. We hope to keep the Epstein saga away from the President.
    Didn't see much about a pizza parlor here but if that's all you have on your mind it's not looking for anything else.
    I feel you have more of a problem with me than the facts. You only lead a horse to water, you can't keep his head out of the sand.

    I remember the bs that went down with this site back in the day when it was hijacked and the crazy that permeated the place at the time. It’s hard to forget the tinfoil hat nonsense. It was WAY out there.
