It was a city within a city. For 41 years, the carrier Constellation- home to as many as 5,500 sailors- operated out of San Diego Bay, where its island became a part of the city’s skyline. More than 160,000 men and women served on “Connie” during a period that stretched from the Vietnam War to the invasion of Iraq in 2003. The short film recounts the history of the ship through the eyes of San Diegans who served on its decks.
