U.S.S. Missouri

Look how big!  The last time I stood on this deck I was a little kid!




Down the hatch!

 

I'll have a burger and chips, please.  There's no COKE!  Good Lord!

  


Where does this lead?
  


  


Heh heh!

  


Dinosaur technology.
  

Look up here!  Look up here!

  

I like this sign!

Old Ironside looking spiffy.

  

Me and Sr. Chief.

  

Apparently they do let eejits sneak on board!

  

A nice shot of the Arizona memorial from on deck.

U.S.S. Oklahoma Memorial

Originally, Hols had two of those pompoms in her hair, but it didn't take long for them both to come out . . . Teenie put one back in. So cute! She smells so much better and looks fantastic after a good grooming.



Teenie and I took a walk last night and decided to share this memorial with y'all.
If you haven't seen the pictures/commentary on my other blog (Aloha Spirit) for the memorial of the U.S.S. Utah, you can pop over there later.
And, yes, that is old iron side . . . U.S.S. Missouri . . . behind all this.

We'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Click to enlarge if you want to read anything.




















Ooops. I deleted a slab picture, but I'm not returning it. Too lazy! It was a full view of this one, but I focused on this one because of the verse. We sing this after Mass at the Navy Chapel. When I read this last night I could NOT get the song out of my head!









Facts about the ship.


Thank you for giving your lives for our freedoms! May we all honour your lives by living ours FREE!
