USS Theodore Roosevelt in SD Bay

SOH-CM-2025
I watch the San Diego Web cam a lot and today captured the USS Roosevelt and the John Lewis in San Diego, I think the Roosevelt is on a post yard trials and will pull in and out of
San Diego. I get to watch live arrivals and departures of all the mil and civ ships. Very interesting to watch. I left SD back in '75 and it sure has grown since then.

Edit: The TR is now docked at SD. Here you see the crew manning the rail. Been there, done that looong ago.

I wonder why the sailors are holding their white hats while manning the rail?

My guess is it was windy and those dixie cups have stripped left hand threads.

I watch the TR that day turn around and go back out past Point Loma and things got bouncy real quick.

I might add that the TR was shifting Home Port to San Diego after completing an 18 month maintenance period.
