Bluehawk Posted May 25, 2020 Share #2 Posted May 25, 2020 Glad she made it through... I took my youngest son on board her years ago, back when she was docked in the China Basin area. What stuck with me most of all was how compact she was... beam + bow > stern + draft etc. HONORING FAMILY LtCol Wm Russell (1679-1757) VA Mil; Pvt Zachariah McKay (1714-97) Frederick VA Mil; BrigGen Evan Shelby, Jr (1719-94) VA Mil; Pvt Vincent Hobbs (1722-1808) Wythe VA Mil; Pvt Hugh Alexander (1724-77); Lt John R.

Woodymyster Posted May 25, 2020 Share #3 Posted May 25, 2020 There is a ww2 Balao class sub there too as wells several other non military ships docked there. It seems they all avoided the fire. Looking for CV-7 Wasp groupings Link to post Share on other sites
