U.S.S. Midway and "The Kiss"
Today I spent the day on the U.S.S. Midway in San Diego. What a huge and impressive ship. Many sailors who dedicated their lives to protect our country served on the Midway at some time during her 47 years of service. Today I was fortunate to meet at least one sailor who served on the Midway. I had an overwhelming feeling of awe as I walked the decks. Thank you all!!
I also wanted to share with you all the statue "Unconditional Surrender" or better know as "The Kiss". The infamous embrace starring a sailor and a nurse is an iconic image of the end of World War II. My father served in WWII as a tail gunner in the Air Force. Thanks Dad!!
Okay, that's it for today! Can't wait till tomorrow! Going on a Harbor Tour!
Hope you'll all check back again soon!
