Ali Dennard is very nice...
Sent in by Andrea West:
The Acadia 1st reunion will be held in San Diego, CA August 14-16. Please make plan to attend this event. It will not cost you a dime to attend, it will be free. I will provide all the food for the cookout at one of the parks in San Diego but will not cook it.
The hotel will be of your choice which will cost you. We will be working on getting a hotel at a reasonable rate. Feel free to look around. Family member are welcome. We all were station there at one time and know the area well along with what San Diego has to offer, so plan your family event.
We will be working on getting a club so that we all can dance some and drink, while talking about the good old days on the ship and where we are now. Keep in mind this is a free event. All suggesting are welcome. More updates to come.
Thank you
Ali Dennard

Kevin Ivey sent in a link that details the Navy's ship disposal plans. Sure enough, the Acadia and several others will be home to the fishes and various other creatures sometime next year. Exactly why some are sunk and others scrapped isn't explained. Perhaps some ships are thought too good to become yet another product of China.

Timothy Burger sent this in: The USS ACADIA was among the ships listed by the US NAVY to be sunk in FY2009. Acadia is more than just any other ship!! She provided vital roles in many Operations (including, but not limited to, Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm.) The US NAVY itself lists the USS ACADIA "for first war-time deployment of male-female crew on combat vessel."
The USS ACADIA is a part of History and should be saved, not sunk!! I think we should put something on the site with this information and see what we would need to do to save her!
Thanks,
Timothy Burger, Adjutant VFW 1504 - Acadia crewman Anyone know of further details? |
