....Through the years the Tomcatters and their predecessors have served aboard the Navy’s finest aircraft carriers, including: USS Langley (CV-1); USS Lexington (CV-2); and the USS Enterprise (CV-6). In 1980 VF-31 and USS Saratoga (CV-60) concluded a 24 year period of continuous service together, the longest in naval history. Since that time, the Tomcatters have served aboard USS Carl Vinson (CVN-70), USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72), USS John C. Stennis (CVN-74), and now currently with USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71).

Just a note...you forgot the carrier I served with...USS Forrestal (CV-59)..a very memorable and fine carrier. :wink:

Professional looking and nicely done! Forum needs some polishing to go along with the new look, but overall clean cut and easy to read site. Did you design it yourself Viper?

Ooow, I gotta tell Opie to fix that. :roll: :lol:

The info is right off VFA-31's website so I will fix it and tell him to change that when they update it. ;) And yes, the Forrestal is a very great carrier...and birthplace of the Tomcat's Navy life might I add. :)
