Walking around the USS Coral Sea model at Naval Aviation Museum

As it says on the tin.

Awesome. I was stationed on her from 77-80 as part of the Marine Detachment. Thanks for showing

Hey, 'jhollie' I built a 1/800 scale CORAL SEA from a 'Arii' MIDWAY kit, take a look of this mid-80s model.... th-cam.com/video/eL3TXh2GepE/w-d-xo.html

The Midway class is one which I just liked in her original design.

[@billhudson1923]

She was my home for awhile in the 70s.

[@vincentlefebvre9255]

every navy ship has a nickname given by other sailors - her's was "the coral sleaze"
