None of the Nimitz class carriers have come here since the Gulf War.. and
even then they anchored out in the stream. Security reasons, I guess.
In the good ole days we could crawl all over the ships... especially if we
found a good natured Yankee sailor who'd show us around.
All we had to do was convince them we had an older sister.
