*About Mike Weeks -

"Mike Weeks is a former Naval Reservist who has as a hobby, a keen interest in the history of carrier aviation.  In 1996 he was asked by the editors of NAVAL AVIATION NEWS magazine (published by the Naval Historical Center) if he'd be interested in writing a summary history of America(CV-66).  Gladly accepting, the resulting work was published in the September-October 1996 issue.  The history reproduced here is the original history submitted, and has a few more details which unfortunately were cut from the published work."
