Yep , definetly making a big turn.... I forget how fire started on the Forestal , explosion in the magazine. Took DAYS not hours to fight. Men were killed and ship was heavily damaged. Worst case scenario when armements intended for use against the enemy are on fire below decks.

A friend here who owned a Roadhouse served aboard the Forestal. Bread recipe at his place was from the Navy (freakin delicous). Speaking of fire control , they had an epic below deck catastrophe.

Yep googled the Nimitz , over a thousand foot long.... HUGE

Permanently dockside , Manhattan off 12th Ave. Now a museum is I think the Intrepid . Seems small compared. Prob WWII , driven by never stopped in. Aircraft on deck.

I assume she was in the video somewhere ...

...went to see the Grateful Dead in Norfolk when the Nimitz was in port (home after trying to get American hostages out of Iran). Really at the dock not anchored in the harbor , drove it's length in our VW staring at it and feeling tiny.
