Atomic age supercarrier Forrestal sails to new Newport berth
Churning tugs move the 60 000 ton USS Forrestal down the James River to 43 new berths off Newport News Virginia. The $200 000 000 aircraft carrier, built to host atomic warplanes, was recently launched and will depart its outfitting pier for sea duty in about a year. Connie Brophy Liw of Cleveland's Hour Hotel figures in the event.
