Default Kitty Hawk CV-63

Does anyone know if it is true that the Kitty Hawk is being decommissioned. I was on the Kitty Hawk with HS-8 attached to Airwing 15 during the Iranian Hostage Crisis. We were on WESTPAC and left from the PI to respond to the Crisis and I think it was either the day before or on Thanksgiving day that we left thePI spent Christams, and New Years at sea. Also in the IO at the time was the Midway, so their were two Carrier Groups ready to respond to the crisis. We spent about 75-80 days at sea before being relieved by the Nimitz carrier group. The Kitty Hawk was sure a good ship. :cd:
