"End of an era: USN's Tomcats make their final approach before decommissioning"
I'm a CASS (Consolidated Automated Support System) op/maintainer. CASS has
taken over all the various test benches the navy used to use and now tests
90% of the avionics coming out of birds with the other 10% in offload
testing. You probably worked in shop 3? Anyway, I work in shop 8, used to be
the VAST shop, don't know if they had that in '72. Our strike/ECM shop was a
bunch of goofballs/slackers, hope yours was better ;-). I'm just doin' my
job...

Jason,
What was you job?
I was an AT2 (way back "in-the-day") on the America in '72, in AIMD ECM
shop. I also felt that we contributed to the overall effort off the coast
of RVN.
Thanks for your service.
Jim
