- evbogue 3y agoWow! You can see Barnes and Noble from that photo. Never knew about it, now I know.
- psunavy03 3y agoI don't think you read the linked article. Yes, there have been several "USS Recruits" at various bases which have hosted Navy boot camps over the years. One is in San Diego at Liberty Station, a mixed-use development which used to be Naval Training Center San Diego and is now anchored by a Stone brewpub. Source: I served in San Diego in the reserves, did detachments there while on active duty, quaffed quite a few pints at said Stone brewpub, and have walked around the "ship."
- lostlogin 3y agoI’m confused. Are you saying the NY ship did, or didn’t exist?
- slyall 3y agoThey both existed. The New York one is completely gone. The San Diego one still physically exists as a museum "ship".
- kergonath 3y agoYou are in agreement then. evbogue wrote: > Is this real? thisismyaccoun7 replied: > Nope. Implying that the one in NY did not exist. Hence thatfunkymunki‘s confusion. They are not the one who didn’t “read the linked article”.
