- More than 700 Sailors aboard USS John F. Kennedy (CV 67) conduct a tribute to honor the ship’s 38 years of distinguished commissioned service while transiting to Boston for a farewell port visit. Kennedy's arrival will mark its last port visit and will afford the people of Boston the opportunity to say goodbye to a ship and crew with whom they have maintained close relations since its christening in 1967. Kennedy is scheduled to decommission in Mayport, Fla., on March 23, 2007. U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Tommy Gilligan (RELEASED)

Hi Kristie,

How does your son like Mayport? My son is in school right now in San Diego and that was one of the bases he is considering. He is looking in to different bases, he is in schooling for his job title until November, so he has a lot of time to ask around. Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the info. I will talk to Michael and ask him if he wants more info. I think it would be great to talk to somebody out on that side, all he hears about is San Diego. He's just not sure on where to go yet, thankfully he has time to check into everything. Thanks for your help.
