Lawmakers want to save 12th carrier
U.S. Sen. Mel Martinez and U.S. Rep. Ander Crenshaw said Monday they want to save the USS John F. Kennedy and renovate the Mayport Naval Station to accommodate nuclear aircraft carriers.
The carrier was saved from decommissioning this year by a proposal pushed by Crenshaw, Martinez and Sen. Bill Nelson, requiring the Navy to keep 12 aircraft carriers.
