in the photo what 2 carriers are they? i cant work out the CV numbers at all?

I thought all carriers were scrapped? are they been saved for museums? i do hope so...


Those carriers are the Ex USS Forrestal CV-59 and the Ex USS Saratoga CV-60.

The Forrestal is to be sunk as an Inaccessible reef and the Sara is to be a Museum Ship along with the Ex USS Ranger CV-61
