    My Uncle Peter served and unfortunately died on this ship Jan 21, 1945 during one of the two kamikaze attacks that day. Uncle Pete, Bill missed you until the day he passed. Thank you for your service and sacrifice. We will finally get to meet one day. Remembering you this Memorial Day, 2024. Love, N.

    My grandfather served on this ship during WWII. He passed away when I
    was young and after we moved out to Cali so I never got the opportunity
    to talk to him about his service. Thank you for posting.

    Thanks for posting this. My favorite uncle served on this ship during WWII and survived those kamikaze attacks. Tough experience for all, especially the youngest guys, like him, 19 years old.

    Great video! My grandfather was a radioman on the Ticonderoga in WW2. He loved that ship and hated the war.

    My father was torpedo bomber pilot VT-80. He wasn't one to talk much about his service. He died in 1991 from cancer. I connected with one of his fellow pilots, Vern Higman, back in 2010. He told me things about my dad that I never knew and about his service on
    board and as a pilot. I wish I could tell him now how proud of him I am.

    my father was aboard during kamikaze attacks and served in 5'' gun mounts , if he was still alive he would be 103 years. i remember as a youth looking through his BIG T log at all of the pictures.

    I really like your vids a lot. But unfortunately i dislike the abrupt endings of the music clips. Why didn´t you fade them out?

      @@TheWarshipologist I really like your vids a lot. But unfortunately I dislike that they are not a 0.25 second longer. Try harder next time.................
      Still working my way through all the USS WASP CV-7 Videos.... great stuff. There's a LOT of information I hadn't seen before!
