Did anyone see the Port of Brownsville’s Port
Matters Newsletter on February 11, 2025, they had a press release titled, “Honoring
a Legacy – USS John F. Kennedy Makes Final Voyage to Port of Brownsville”?
We blogged on the USS John F. Kennedy’s
(CV-67) heading to its final destination to Port of Brownsville earlier
this year, hence it seemed we should let you know how the journey is proceeding. Well, it seems the journey is almost over! Last week the aircraft carrier entered the Port
of Brownsville on its way to International Shipbreaking Ltd. where it will be
disassembled and salvaged. The vessel
was made with high-grade steel which should mean it has another use in its
future. The Port of Brownsville has
a made a name for itself and its workforce for salvaging retired U.S. Maritime
and Military vessels. Three key ship
salvaging businesses call Port of Brownsville home, and they salvage the
vast majority of the U.S. Maritime and Military vessels. If you would like to read more on the last
adventure of USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67) on the way to the Port of
Brownsville, please click the link Honoring a Legacy: USS John F. Kennedy Makes Final Voyage to Port of Brownsville – Portof Brownsville.
We would like to say farewell to
the USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67)! We would
like to thank you for protecting all which served on you and for protecting our
shores and our allies’ shores from those who wished us harm!
