My neighbor also works on the Ford. He's Navy and works in electronics and that's all he can say
It was awesome to see the super structure installed, I think back in March.
I'm looking forward to see and hope to help build the new Enterprise and JFK built here...

That or be the one CV that is lucky like the USS Enterprise (CV-6), except this one would nicknamed the Lucky F with some extra meaning in there.

Some items are public knowledge and others may not be, discussing details would be generally not be good.
