USS Torks/John Brown

Neal asked a few weeks back if I could post some pictures of the USS Torsk deck work. I also had a special treat today as well:

0700 bow of the Torsk. Wood is up and this is the work the Seabees have been doing. Welding and repairing the superstructure for the new ipe wood installation:

Seabees doing their thing!

Now the special treat for me. The Liberty Ship John Brown was across the harbor. I have never seen her in person. What a cool ship to see!

Old meets new. Brown and Constellation

Note the street light on right compared to the ship. Big ship!

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pictures. Next month is the last cruise down the Chesapeake for the year. I plan on going for the cruise.
