| Post subject: | USS MISSISSIPPI |
Hardly aviation related, but uber-cool nonetheless. Last week I had the privilidge to have a tour of the newest ship in the US NAVY. USS Mississippi was commissioned in Pascagoula, MS on Sat., 2JUN. The contrast between her and my Gato class USS Drum is astonishing. At the same time many things found aboard Drum remain in use aboard MS. As the Chief that gave me the tour said, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". Can't say that about aviation, EVERYTHING is different now from WWII. http://good-times.webshots.com/album/58 ... good-times |
