Assunto: USS Cabot in New Orleans

        I understand that efforts to preserve the Independence class CVL
USS Cabot have failed, and she is in New Orleans waiting to be scrapped
(I saw her from a distance in January).  Since I live in Baton Rouge, I
would like to drive down and photograph her before she is broken up, but
I need the name and address of the scrapyard to get permission.  Can
anyone help?  Please email responses.

Thanks,

Butch

Sorry to hear about that. The navy times Oct 24 of last year had an
article about the cabot and its situation.

You might want to check with American Legion Post 377 in Kenner, La as
they were one of the parties involved in the fiasco that lead to this.

I was in New Orleans in January for a navy school and think I may have seen
her from a bridge.

Huh?  What secret school did officers on your boats attend?

Nice try, but leadership is somewhat different from clinical Psych.  
This doesn't explain how Music majors fit in either.

Why? What could possibly lead a Psych Major to know more than an Engineer about
critical thinking? If engineers aren't critical about their designs, those
designs will be trash. By your argument about tactical thinking, all Officers
should be Software Engineers, since they have the most experience at breaking
problems down into manageable units, and assigning tasks that will accomplish
the job.

Guess you've never done an Engineering course then. I only wish I had as few
papers to write as a Psych major. Large amounts of my assessment (I'm a
proto Electronic Engineer) are written reports, and there is a _big_ emphasis
on clear, concise writing, and readable style.

Non Problem.  Assign SeaBee enlisteds who have become officers to Public Works,
then the LAMPS tech can go to a weps berth on a Burke.

Mainly because of the needs of Naval Politics.  (Remembering an 4.0 eval I had
to write.  Because despite the fact the guy was a dirtbag, he was going to
college and volunteering 20+ hours a week,
(mostly on Navy time), while I did most of his job.)

Problem wasn't letting them know what they needed.  (Never had a problem with
that!  An informed officer is a better officer)  The problem came when they
assumed they knew more about the FCS because they had been to the OFFICER
school.

FWIW in the FBM system, the Enlisted usually knew more about tactics than the
officers.  We HAD to because it affected the way we operated the system.p rKOp~

No, I just think that pre-division training (12 months of it) that
concentrates on only one aspect of a ship is a waste of time and
money.

And when you start to select people based on how well they'll do in
that (for most jobs irrelevant) training, you're just asking for
problems.

She WAS a secretary.She got a degree from Wake Forrest (two years after
trasnferring from some cow college in Texas), came to work as a secretary
at $17K. Did a great job. I got her a raise after 18 months to $19K.
Right around that time I fired the MBA who was my assistant (he couldn't
add a column of numbers the same way twice.) I made a case she could do
the job better, faster and cheaper (he was making $56K) I went through
the admin to reclass the job and lo and behold she was making $34.5K.
She's had the job almost three years now, and although I no longer work
there I hear through the grapevine she's doing fine.
Moral of the story: get in first, even if the pay sucks. Then look
around. And no, I live, and the division of Nabisco (Planters Lifesavers)
I'm talking about is in,Winston-Salem, North Carolina. $34.5K here is
$60K in New York or LA.

Okay, Assistant PW Officer. I spent six glorious weeks on Guam and have
no trouble believing that could happen. My point is the same.

I never saw any JO's that couldn't do evals, even the Canoe U. ones.
Every curriculum teaches SOME writing.

I thought the Supply System was easy (course, I was a Supply Officer <g>)
I remember having fast scram recovery explained once and feeling the room
spinning . . .)

Okay, sounds like you're motivated. I can say that, coming from a Navy
family, and joining without looking at the others, that later experience
showed me that the Army, AF, and Marines OCCASSIONALLY do something better
than the Nav. If their programs are better, go that way. Good luck.

Rickovers book is certainly interesting and can be had from the US
Government Printing Office.  As far as bag guns are concerned, look at the
appendix of the book Command at Sea by the USNI press.  There is quite a
chapter about safety with bag guns in which the author outlines the history
of accidents prior to WWII

I spent a few years in the U.S. Navy; some of them on carriers.
I believe that all the carriers from Forrestal on had armoured
flight decks.  I think the thickness was four inches.  Although
I never personally saw one, I was told that later carriers were
built without expansion joints in the flight deck.  If this is true,
then I would interpret this to mean that the flight deck was a
structural component of the ship, rather than a superstructure
as in earlier carriers.  Check out some pictures of WWII carriers
where it is easy to see that the flight deck is a superstructure
on top of the ship.  One of the reasons for using wood flight
decking was to avoid the bad effects of placing a lot of weight
up high.

I was in the air wing on Oriskany in 1970.  Normally, no wood
was visible on the flight deck.  However, from time to time, the
rubberized non-skid surface would get damaged and peel up from
the deck.  As a temporary fix, some one would cut away the loose
flap, leaving the teak exposed until the non-skid was repaired.
It was the custom on Oriskany to save the replaced wood when repairs
were made to the deck, and then use it to produce plaques that
were given to folks who served on the ship.

I served aboard Midway as ship's company.  My stateroom was just
below the flight deck, and just aft of the forward expansion joint.
In case anyone is wondering, the expansion joint in a carrier flight
deck is similar to the expansion joint in a large highway bridge.
It allows the geometry of the flight deck to change slightly to
relieve stresses.  The expansion joint passageway was a convenient
means of getting from one side of the ship to the other because
it was straight and relatively unobstructed.  However, it was
not a nice place in bad weather because the joint leaked pretty
badly.
