That was my ship from about 1981 to 1983.
She was based in Alameda, Ca.
I did my reserve at the Oakland Naval Base.

The Oakland Naval Base is no more. Was sold during peacetime.
just like Treasure Island (SF) is not owned by the Govt. anymore either.

I spent some time when the E was in Norfolk in the 90’s.

Naval enthusiasts requested that Enterprise be converted into a museum. By 2012 this was deemed too expensive to make such an effort practical, in addition to the fact that the ship would need to be partially dismantled anyway to remove the eight reactors safely

I was on her 81-85. Were you there when we got stuck in the mid in S.F. Bay?
