I did not know that. Thanks for the info It was a fluke. Saratoga CV 60 was the second Forestall Class Carrier and Forestall Cv-59 had 8-600 PSI Boilers. That significant change still did not change the class name. I can also tell you the name of the only carrier built with a sonar dome. America LOL.

The last few CV's the Navy got rid of they were sank. Scrappers can't make any money off of them due to environmental and safety regulations. Look for a SINKEX off the Florida Coast in the future as an artificial reef. IIRC that's where she was home ported Mayport, Florida.
