USS Torks/John Brown

AVGWarhawk · 08-15-09, 03:29 PM

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.

Pretty cool!

I'm jealous, I wanna take a ride too

Nice AVG!

They have the same deal in San fransick-o. It would be fun to do a subsim meeting there, other than it is a little spendy there.

Still pretty cool pictures, even for a mobile Chris.

I was looking on someones blog the other day and there were a load of pictures of past crew and volunteers from the USS Torsk visiting the USS Becuna with 'baby JR'.

I couldn't see you though

Pictures of me are few and far between. You can fine me in the FER or AER working on something

So Gil went up to the con and trained the attack scope on the Brown!

The submarine's captains dream!

I've probably already got them.

I'm just struggling a little in trying to Photoshop some clothing on them
