Coral Sea! She was HO out of Yohama in my day; CV-43 I think  But I am NO FAN of Reagan or CAspar Weinberger; for thats why al lot of mid-level e-5's n 6's left...Now I know we had to replace aging carriers ( I served onbd Ranger Connie and Enterprise) and he wanted to go from a 400 ship to a 600 ship Navy. But didnt give a DAMN about us in uniform. I was a fairly senior e-5 extended for a year for my Guard III orders to NAS Cubi Pt; but all were recinded. I ws a PN and the msg traffic came in that "ALL OUTCONUS PCS ORDERS ARE CANX". And after a lot of us left he made it a policy that we were not entitled to unemployment benefots anymore saying that "we quit our jobs". SO in 85 we were able to get 3 months worth. Reaga/Weinberger? They treated us LIKE CRAP.
