We almost never went anywhere in the Med on the Forrestal without our Soviet (back then) escort.

Once we had a ‘secret’ port call scheduled...ship went full dark, low electronics emissions, the whole nine yards.

Guess who led us into the harbor???

It’s pretty hard to be stealthy when you’re 85,000+ tons of Yankee Doodle awesomeness!
