    I served aboard the CV 63 as an engine man. Just wondering if you guys were using the Connie’s emergency diesel engines? Thank You for your time and have a continuing safe voyage.

    Hi, I served aboard CONNIE from 1969 – 1971 in the Captain’s Office, X Division. Can you tell me what yard will be doing the salvaging and if you have an email address for them? I am interested in getting any memorabilia from her. (I have contacted ESCO but they are not the breaker yard for CONNIE.)

    I was stationed on the Connie for three years (76-79). Sure would be nice to see her when she pulls in to port. Could you post some additional pictures?
