USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72), undergoing washdown. The washdown system originally developed after the 1946 Operation Crossroads nuclear tests at the Bikini Atoll in the Pacific as a method of ridding a ship of radiation fallout. Also, cleans the ship of biological and chemical agents and can be used to deliver enough fire suppressant foam to cover the deck in seconds. | ||

I don't intend to turn this into a place for products I think are cool, but I really love this Trek frame. OCLV 120 Carbon and the best looking paint/decal job I've seen on any production frame. | ||
