These were taken from the area around the WWII aircraft carrier Hornet. The Hornet is on the left in the first shot.

That Hornet is CV 12, and sits in the same slip that CV 8 left from with the Doolittle raiders , and was later sunk.

I know the Hornet! I made a WestPac on her in '67. That section, I believe, is the port side forward part of the flight deck close to the cats on top. RFB

That was our deployment point on the USS Midway heading to Vietnam in 1964.

All beautiful sunsets but the framing on the first one takes the prize, nicely done.
