Have A Nice Day Jack Fusari MM2 62-66

mr.fusari ...could you please inform me on when the kitty hawk is decommissioned how the certificates are given....i was wondering how the addresses of us who commissioned her are found to get them to us...i have my plank owners cert dated the 29th of april 1961...thank you ....george charles crysler..

Is this still viable due to her being in Pearl prior to arriving in San Diego........
