USS Midway.

Hell yeah! Go Navy!

Point Loma Submarine base. On the phone with Neal, asking for directions out of SD harbor. Can you fire up that mission in DW, where you start at Pt. Loma and sail out to sea for training.

Hornet nest.

Name that ship.

Oh look SEALs came out to play.

It's the ship from the movie, replica, not the real thing.

hehe thanks, for a moment i thought that parts of those stories might have been real

San Diego, i think the very first 688(i) sim from Sonalysts also started from there. Lots of interesting things to see there .. thanks again

Oooh, very happy to see the Dolphin on exhibit there

Hopefully I can make it sometime - maybe even this year! She's a unique one for sure
