BREMERTON NAVAL SHIPYARD

 

            I have only been to Bremerton one time and that was during the Navy days aboard USS KILAUEA AE-26. Just like all of the great government owned yards this one fell on the BRAC axe. The yard was not to far from the ferry terminal to Seattle so that's what I did  when I was not on duty. They did have a good movie theatre there downtown so I did catch a movie while I was there. I think we went to Bremerton to deliver ammo to one of the carriers in port which I think might have been the old Connie (USS CONSTELLATION CV-64). I used to have pictures of all these places while I was in the Regular Navy but they got lost in storage in San Antonio after my first job with Military Sealift Command. I am having to find these on the web. Other than the ferry ride to Seattle and the walk around town nothing really memorable occurred .
