- Summary:
- Today's update - I have new photos from Jerry Boysell including recent reunion pics and some from the 1958-59 Westpac. Carl Hink sent in a couple of photos from the Lorraine American Cemetery Memorial Day Ceremony he led on 25 May 2008. Lastly I posted photos from Michael Fiore's USS Midway 40th Anniversary photo album.
- Midway Museum News
- The only traveling copy of the Declaration of Independence—printed on July 4, 1776—will be exhibited aboard the USS Midway Museum July 4, 2008!
The Museum will open early at 9 a.m. that day for this unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! It’s one of only 25 remaining original copies and is part of a 14-city national tour by Declare Yourself, sponsored by Cricket Wireless. The multi-media exhibit will feature national entertainment celebrities encouraging young people to register to vote. The original copy is owned by television producer Norman Lear. This is an opportunity like no other!
- The USS Midway also will host “A Celebration of America” beginning at 6 p.m. on July 4, leading up to the Big Bay Fireworks. The Declaration will be featured, along with live entertainment by national celebrities (not yet announced), and an emotional salute to our 232nd birthday featuring 232 Iraq and Afghanistan veterans! (Lawn chairs, snacks and non-alcoholic beverages will be allowed.) Our exclusive radio partner, MAGIC 92.5, will be broadcasting live from the flight deck! Limited tickets for “A Celebration of America” go on sale June 12 at www.midway.org.
It’s a great opportunity to experience the birth of America on our nation’s birthday, aboard our nation’s West Coast symbol of strength, freedom and peace!

- Summary:
- Today's update - The Photo / Video Gallery is undergoing a major upgrade. The menu bar link now points to the new Gallery, however, the migration is not complete. I am also still tweaking the look and feel. I wanted to go ahead and release to the public now so the Gallery link at least came up with something. I'll post further progress later. Buzz OBTW - the links for the old updates no longer work, so I'm starting off with a fresh "What's New!" page.
