Re: United States Ship "AMERICA"
the uss america was a aircraft carrier -- last used in the 2nd gulf war -- it has since been turned into a artifical reef
my vessel the m/v gus w. darnell supplied jet fuel to the uss america for use by its aircraft during the war.

Re: United States Ship "AMERICA"
Nice! Are both rings gold? That lighter is in good shape, for how old it is at the youngest even, and how long its possibly been there. Ivan, that is neat that your ship supplied fuel to a ship that Max found something that was attached to it. Ivan, you told me you were a chef, were you a chef on a military ship?
