Made the first cruise in 1975 to the North Atlantic while assigned to VA-82 and became a Plank Owner at that time. Also made the next two med cruise's before transfering to Pt Mugu for shore duty. The memories are still vivid in my mind of the flight deck operations and the good friends I had back then. BOHICA

I was assigned to the Nimitz on the original pre-commissioning unit in 1972 and transferred on the day of commissioning. I would like to obtain a list of the crew on the day of commissioning. Also, if anyone out there was on the pre-commissioning unit please reply.

It's been 30 yrs since that unforgettable night. Most of us were in our racks for liberty in Lauderdale. We didn't expect 2 days in Norfolk. At about 12:05 am they announced "Battle Stations". We lost 14 and more then 80 wounded. I was in aft BDS and all the class V and wounded were located midship and foward.. Up all night hit the rack at 2pm I worked with CDR Dan Golden who was oral Surg aboard chief Dental officer who identified dead.
