For more than a decade and a half, the last remaining conventionally powered aircraft carrier, the Ex-USS John F. Kennedy (CV-67), has been moored in the City of Brotherly Love—a tangible symbol of America’s military strength in the city where both the Navy and Marine Corps were founded 250 years ago. On Thursday, three tugboats pulled alongside the Ex-JFK, the mooring lines were dropped from Pier 4, and she began her final voyage down the Delaware River, bound for scrapping in Brownsville, Texas.
