Vintage 8mm film footage from 1981 showing a large white naval ship, hull number 146, gliding through open ocean waters near the San Diego Naval Base. The ship moves steadily, creating a white wake as it cuts through the blue sea under a bright sky. The grainy, slightly faded color palette and visible film scratches are characteristic of home movie 8mm footage. The camera captures the vessel from a side angle, emphasizing its size and motion. This archival clip offers authentic military maritime history with a nostalgic, documentary feel.
