Any Navy guys out there. The "Big E" (CVAN-65) is having retiring ceremonies this Saturday at Norfolk VA. She was quite the ship in her day. Sorry to hear go by way of de-commissioning,..but I believe they will make her a museum of some sorts and not send her to the scrap yard.
I never served on the Enterprise,but went aboard her when she was stationed out of Alameda California. My Carrier,the USS Coral Sea CVA-43, was moored one pier over and I got the chance to take a tour of the Big E while she was in cold iron. Pretty Impressive then and now.
