how far is that from bremerton shipyard ... my old ship the Kitty Hawk 
(cv-63) is there. she was decommissioned in 2009 right now still in 
ready reserve but there is a effort underway to save her from scrap heap 
and becoming a museum in long beach close to the queen mary. the Ranger 
(CV-61) lost that battle and just arrived (got towed) to brownsville 
texas and will be dismantled as scrap. would be a shame if the hawk 
ended up that way ... she was the first ship of the kitty hawk class and 
the last one of that class in service. at one point she was the flag 
ship if the navy and flew the red and white stripped "don't tread on me" 
ensign
