They're going to christen the new aircraft carrier at Grummon across the
river on Saturday (should be interesting in the middle of a Nor'eater).
Both Bush and Cheney will be there (ot's named after GW's Dad, George
the First). Guy in the apt. across from us is an acct, for Grummon. He
said they'd be moving her to a different berth up the river to fit her
out...that will take another 2 years. This is the last of the Nimitz
class to be built.


How'd you get in? I'd loke to go but don't geel like getting shot.

Was working nearby on a control job (VA Beach). Had a cousin in a high
ranking position (Navy). A personal invite and I had a private tour of the
Truman. Of course, that was pre-911.
