Wow — next year will be a heck of a time for the Enterprise!
What a storied history with much more to come, I’ll bet.

I have an idea, drop this goofy name of naming aircraft carriers after Presidents (I don’t mind Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt, Reagan and Bush), but come on the Navy needs a ship named Enterprise...

May God bless this ship, the sailors and the seas upon which she sails.

Our air craft carriers and Navy just never cease to amaze me. You have to be in awe of their capabilities and what they do for our nation. They give us the ability to project our power anywhere on the globe, almost on demand. Truly a result of the American Exceptionalism; the concept of which seems to be so elusive for our “president” and liberals as a whole.

Scrapped in 1958. Yeah. Isn't that a travesty.
The most decorated ship in WWII.
Fighting in 20 of the 22 major Pacific battles.
My dad served on her for 3 years 2 months sacrificing to keep America free.
Thanks Dad. RIP
Thanks CV6. RIP

Having served aboard two aircraft carriers in the Tonkin Gulf waters off Viet Nam from 1968-1971, (the USS Oriskany, and the USS Ranger), I tip my hat to the fine men and officers who have served aboard the Enterprise during her wonderful 49 years of service.
Here, here!

my nephew is currently serving on the big E. it was sort of ironic that he got stationed on the Enterprise when his whole family are Star Trek fanatics.
