In the 1960’s, the “Big E” made port at Hunters Point Naval Shipyard in San Francisco - where my Dad was stationed.

We got a tour of the ship - incredibly massive and it made a huge impression on me ...

LOL! My wife, as a teen, got to tour her then, too; her dad was a retired Navy officer; and her cousin was stationed aboard her.

Anyway, she got lost looking for a ‘ladies room’, and ended up staring at armed guards near the main reactor area, who gave her directions.
