the Lexington

visited the aircraft carrier The Lexington; here standing in front of an A-4 one of the jets my squadron in the Navy Flew…its a museum piece now…I wasn’t on the Lexington, the Independence was larger, but it reminded my that I would not want to be stationed on one again…hit my head twice. We saw a Jet like John McCain flew in Viet Nam as well as one like George Bush Sr was shot down in in WWII
Standing in front of an A-4 like one in the squadron I served in in the Navy, now a Museum piece
Good thing you aren’t in a museum, too. That’s got to be strange to see the things that were so modern in your time to now be considered a collector’s piece. I know my time is coming, too!
