Hey Zoomie,
The Mooj site has a bunch of Enterprise nuclear stories from the 60s to the present, but it won't have ships schedule or plans on there. King Paul, the sites founder, is a little too salty to allow such stuff on his site, as it should be. However, if you click on the link above, and then scroll down to the pages, (Page1,2,3 etc) and click on them, you'll get a flavor of what surface nukes of old and recent think and do.
Try Global Security.org.
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ship/cvn-65.htmThis will give you good info that is in the public domain on the ship and it's history, as well as decomissioning plans. It looks from reading there that current plans are decomm in 2012. (I feel I can say this as it is public info) That means, when you get there.. GET HOT. Fight like mad any plans to keep you out of the plants. I'm sure the XO is even now levying Reactor and Engineering departments for more MAA and ventilation cleaners and other BS positions that ships need, but nukes generally dodge. So, you get onboard, work your tail off from the get go, and don't let them sideline you to other non-nuclear duties to the best of your ability. Otherwise, you'll be at 6 years, and not qualified senior in rate, cause they're de-comming her anyway.
Next, the ship should send you a welcome aboard package, and hopefully assign you a sponser.
Finally.. just a suggestion.. Put off the reenlistment until you get there and find out what it's all about. If it's great.. Then reenlist. But look before you leap.
Best of luck on the Pig.. She's hard to get out of the yards, but once up and running, she's a very versatile reactor/steam plant platform.
