That's right Rev. I believe it is the last time the Big E would see the Pacific......then she was scrapped.

that was criminal to scrap her

just as criminal is the Navys naming of the new carrier class of Gerald Ford

we all know it should be the Enterprise class!!!

Well, at least we can all take comfort in that the next CV class lead will be named USS H. Obama.

I'm guessing that they were probably flouresent (or at least reflective) for night passage. It narrows pretty quickly.
