That's a BIG boat even from half a mile away! I got a tour of sorts when it was in Pensacola in Mar 2004. It was even bigger up close! http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/03/bravo_zulu_big.html#comment-57413 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/03/bravo_zulu_big.html#comment-57413 Sat, 03 Mar 2007 23:13:07 -0600 We should sell her to the Chinese to be an amusement park... oh wait, they've already got an aircraft carrier amusement park. Never mind. Mebbe turn her into a floating casino in Bahston Hahbah. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/03/bravo_zulu_big.html#comment-57405 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/03/bravo_zulu_big.html#comment-57405 Sat, 03 Mar 2007 15:17:42 -0600 Kennedy was the last of the USN's oil-burner aircraft carriers. After she's decommissioned, the carrier force will be 100% nuke-powered models. ]]> http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/03/bravo_zulu_big.html#comment-57402 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2007/03/bravo_zulu_big.html#comment-57402 Sat, 03 Mar 2007 14:55:27 -0600
