Tugboats pull the USS Saratoga under the Claiborne Pell Newport Bridge as she begins her final voyage from Newport Naval Station to a dismantling facility in Brownsville, Texas--the carrier's final resting place. The ship arrived in Newport on Aug. 7, 1998, after spending four years in storage following her decommissioning in 1994. The Saratoga was the second carrier of the Forrestal class and completed 22 deployments in her 38-year career.
