Thanks Halligan for sharing your trip with us!
Nice tour thanks.
Reminds me of my Navy days aboard CV-59, Thanks!
Very cool.
cool stuff brother. i was on a submarine out in long beach California. very cool stuff
Was there last week, wicked cool place.
I used to work there over the summer, last summer its a pretty good museum overall
Nice! I wouldn't mind doing that, but only if I got to go into places the public wasn't allowed.
Yea, Keith could chuck that prop up in his little lathe and work it over. :)
Nice Reed Prentice
Where you from in Massachusetts? You mentioned going an hour south and that would put you somewhere near me. I'm in Abington. Lmk thanks
cool video, thanks
I'm with you...woulda been toying with the lathe if it wasnt for the glass. ;-)
You should take a look at the other one on the Massachusetts. Would have had a field day in there. Funny thing is the one with the 3 jaw on it in that video looks like it was recently used. The ways are shiny with what looks like oil
My father is 90 years old and volunteers a couple of days a week on the J. P. Kennedy.
That's pretty cool!
he is a pretty cool guy!
Wow, you brought back some cool memories. Back in "58 in response to the Sputnik scare, the Navy conducted a Science Fair prize. Sixty nine of us winners were flown to San Diego for a 1 week Science cruise. We were divided into 4 groups for a session of "war games". The first day our group boarded the USS Seadevil WWII sub. I remember sitting on a torpedo in the forward torpedo room when we heard a loud "clack". When we asked what it was the sailor in there with us announced "we are all dead"! It was a hand grenade thrown from a destroyer escort to simulate an ash can. The next day I got to throw a live grenade off of the fantail of the USS Lewis Destroyer escort. Oh yes it was noisy in the engine compartment when topside. You couldn't even hear any one screaming in there ! Thanks for the new tour.
CVA 66 three and half years.
My father served aboard the America from 66-68 with the Marine detachment.
