USS Saratoga comes home to Mayport

[@JoeKyser]

Grandpa Was Lt Commander Howard Galen. His last port was Philadelphia where we all settled down. I remember living on the Navy Base as a young child in the 80s before he bought a home in NJ. That ship brought by family around the world and back again

I spent a good chunk of the 80’s on Saratoga. I hadn’t been back to Mayport since then until this week. I saw this at the Chiefs club. I’m so glad they made this happen. I just hated seeing her go to scrap like that.

My father served on this ship as a radioman from 1972 to 1978. He served on her sister ship Independence from 1979 to 1982.
