Thanks for the reply. Spent the last week in San Antonio and Corpus Christi where we visited the USS Lexington. Imagine my son's surprise when the ship was portrayed on last night's episode of Ghost Hunters!

Welcome my friend to DPS. You'll get lost in here. Hours and hours of great photos and people. Looking forward to more post. I looked hard at this one because I thought it was the USS Alabama in Mobile. Great shot
