USS Midway

So recently, I was lucky enough visit the USS Midway aircraft carrier. What to say?? It was off da hook!


Ship specifics:

• 3500 crew


• Flight deck - 4.2 acres and ~1000 feet


• Displacement - 100,000 tonnes


• The Chief Petty Officer has the best food on the ship, and the captain has to ask permission to visit his living area


• Engine is the same as in the Mighty Mo


• It missed WWII by days --- that must have been TOUGH for the crew!

The tour is self-paced and wickedly informative, so if you are in San Diego, you gotta drop by for sure!

Those are my Two Cents for the day
