That reminds me.... the last time I went to Fleet Week in..............

Ft. Lauderdale, FL (about 3 yrs ago?), I toured a ship and went to a reception later on it (was for a Micron Golf tournament)...

The ship was the USS Cole.

;-p

it was really eerie to hear about the bombing afterwards, i'll tell you! i was watching the news about it and it dawned on me i'd actually seen 80% of the ship... really scary.

I went to Fleet Week last year in San Diego, saw 3 aircraft carriers "parallel parked". very cool.

I bet!!! I remember the Norfolk Navy Base (years ago)

used to have a lot of carriers there, battleships too... it was awesome to look around down there (was in the military at the time and stationed close by at the Little Creek NAB).
