I steamed with the New Jersey battle group in late 1983 onboard the USS Milwaukee . We were staioned off the coast of Beirut and provided fuel, ammunition, and stores to the other ships in the area. The projectile cans for the 16" rounds are huge, we had hundreds of EMPTY ones onboard at 1 point during the cruise. I guess they were shooting the big guns on the BB, but at the time they didn't tell us what was going on around us. Our news was daily meaasge traffic of 1 or 2 paragraph stories from the AP.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
