I was there in 81 with VF-111 Sundowners. My Dad also served on her in early seventies HC-1 out of Imp. Beach San Diego. I will never forget the PI and drinking with the locals in Perth Australia...The best time i ever had!
@@mondobondo49 Wow!! Dad is from Perth West Australia. (Fremantle was the port) and we all got to see the Battle Cat pass thru where we live now, now that's amazing. Thank you so much for tuning into our channel
My dad was an AW onboard in the 90's. I was an AW onboard from 2006-2008. I sailed that ship from Japan to Singapore, Australia, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Guam, & Thailand.

Hello Sandra, thank you to all who served on the mighty Battle Cat, including your Dad. He was a part of history, you must be very proud. A very emotional day. Thank you for watching ✌️🤙🇺🇸
When I saw what was happening it completely broke my heart. I'm so very proud of my Dad & all the brave who serve. Being a Navybrat I'm even more grateful, for I exsist thanks to my parents meeting during their service (Whidbey island). We're all so lucky to have been protected by KittyHawk. 🇺🇸✌😍
Hello Cedric, so glad you checked out our video of the mighty Battle Cat. Thanks for the info you provided regarding your Commander Pickavance. We did some research and his nickname was "Bear". Thanks again for tuning into our channel for this awesome event and we appreciate your service.
My former brother in law was on it in the 70s as well … I cried when her final journey started and knowing she’s made it to her final port breaks my heart
Hi, IK it was an emotional experience for a lot of vets lining the jetties of South Padre island watching her final voyage. Thanks so much for your comments and for tuning into our channel✌️
Hi Tuuminshz, you have that right!! History passes thru the channel where incredible future history is being made. Thanks for checking out our channel, hope you like our SpaceX content from our perspective here on South Padre Island✌️
The generosity of our government, is truly startling. At least when it comes to our tax dollars. This huge ship, that over it's lifetime consumed a billion dollars (or more), has been sold to a ship breaking company for the staggering sum of 1 cent. It always boggles my mind to see how little the people we elect, care about the American people and tax payers, when they so blatantly rub it in our faces. 1 cent?
I had two westpac cruises on the Hawk, 1967 - 1968. Still have fond memories.

West PAC 1980! My home for me and HS-4 Black Knights. I'll never forget her and I wouldn't trade a single day aboard her for anything.

I served on-board 91-96. That is the price of freedom buddy. Not only that but it costs more than 1cent to dismantle an aircraft carrier.
Hi William, thanks for your service on the mighty Battle Cat and for checking our our video on this historic day✌️🇺🇸
