Default My honeymoon visit to various USN yards (lots of pictures!)

Hi guys..

Long time ago.. everything oke here ?

Here's some shots of my honeymoon.
I loved my visit to the States.. and I will return.
Maybe then the west coast (Bremerton, San Diego )

I have made over 5000 pictures.. So if you have questions let me know.
It's impossible to place them all (wish I could)

Chief.. if it's to much let me know
I'll reduce the number of pics..

Sail of the USS halfbeak


Some shots of USS Ling




Beautiful battle flags displayed in NJ naval Museum.


WW2 memorial Washington DC



Washington DC, Iwo Jima memorial and Smithsonian museum (check Enola gay)

Welcome back from your honeymoon, Foo. Lots of guys around here owe you a lot and don't even know that their custom sub came from you. You sure changed the game for me, giving me a lot more identification with my sub and making the game feel much more real. Salute!

Great pics

Especially #17 is awesome. Would it be possible to get a high-res version of it?
