The aircraft carrier USS Saratoga has been sold to a scrapper for one penny.
I was in a Marine Corps jet fighter squadron for carrier quals aboard the "Sara" in the fall of 1956 while the "Sara" herself was still brand new and in shakedown.
The Sara will be the second aircraft carrier I served on to be scrapped and recycled. The other was the USS Lake Champlain.
