USS RANGER was the third ship in the FORRESTAL - class and the second carrier in the Navy to bear this name. Commissioned as attack aircraft carrier CVA 61, the RANGER was redesignated as multi-purpose aircraft carrier CV 61 on June 30, 1975. USS RANGER was last homeported in San Diego, Calif. After decommissioning the RANGER was laid-up at the Naval Inactive Ship Maintenance Facility at Bremerton, Wash., awaiting possible future use as a museum ship. The museum plans, however, were canceled and on December 22, 2014, the RANGER was sold for scrapping to International Shipbreaking Ltd. of Brownsville, Tx., for one cent. On March 5, 2015, the RANGER left Bremerton, Wash., under tow enroute to Brownsville, Tx., where she arrived on July 12, 2015. Scrapping at Brownsville was finished on November 1, 2017.
