My 5 minutes of fame. Huel interviewed me as I walked on the ship. I worked in Shop 56 for Bob Dillon and John Smith. I'm still working in shipbuilding after almost 30 years.
The head of public affairs guy is pretty awesome. I remember this day as a kid, and the autographed photo from Huell that I treasured so much. Great memory that I'm so happy to have found!
I worked for the shipyard shop 38/05 Marine Machinist I was 19 yrs old. I love d it. I worked dry dock 01,02 and 03. I worked all the ships. For a 19 yrs old it was awesome. It was 1983. We use to play tonk card game in dry dock 01 what memories beautiful
Worked at LBNSY IN THE 80'S. The worst place I've ever worked! I worked in shop 17 (sheetmetal shop) and the management in that shop was horrible! Glad when I left and moved to the Northwest.

My father drydocked that ship ,and was the dockmaster at southwest marine. Miss him he couldnt live without my mother.
I was briefly stationed here with Marine 3rd ANGLICO back in the '80s. It was a great base and the nearby eateries were par excellant.
Brings back memories I went through LBNSY in 1964 on a destroyer good times in Long Beach

I worked at LBNSY when I got out of the navy in 1991 worked there until 1996 then laid off. Great place to work and still have great friends
Lay off due to it shutting down:/ so sad. I wish the ship yards in long beach were still around

Now the shipyard is a huge container ship harbor.
