Yes, I was wrong. I remember being on deck and realizing by the surface that it had aircraft capability. Yes, I edited it when I realized my mistake. We also took out all the old wood decking in the boat bay and replaced it with new wood. The old stuff was rotted. Inside the ballast tanks there was rusty areas that needed refurbished and repainted. The outer hull was also repainted. Another cool thing I got to do was in a large area under the flight deck we cut a hole into the floor and winched in large computer servers. Some sort of secret (kind of) upgrade. We were under armed guard for that room at all times. IE, guys standing by with weapons. We had to surrender all our cell phones and the room was in service the whole time. We brought the equipment up through the hole, patched it and left. Those guys in there were like wizards. It was like being in a super top secret room. Sign in and surrender all phones, do your job and get out. LOL. Pretend you don't have guys with rifles standing over you. That was funny. Like, we are welders. Too ignorant to even know anything about what they are doing. My biggest bitch is that they let Mexican nationals work with us on an active military vessel. Jerks were robbing that ship blind till they figured it out and stationed guards all over under the ship. I also hated it that some of our foremen were running a drug operation on the ship. I was happy to provide NCIS with the information on our foreman for sexual assault. He was a pig. His buddy threatened us for rumors floating around and claimed he had gone on vacation. The running joke after that was, he had gone on vacation wearing handcuffs. Not my sort of vacation. It's a federal offense to commit any sort of crime on a Navy vessel from what I was told. I didn't find out about the drug selling until after NCIS had questioned us.
