It a Claud Jones Class DE. They had hull numbers in the 10XX. Not sure why the other three digits are missing.

I have been trying to ID this ship...it was traveling with us (USS Yorktown CVS-10) in 1968. I have checked online for all types of destroyers (DD,DDG,DE,etc) with hull#1 with no luck. Can anyone tell me what kind of ship this is?

Not true at all. Windows 10 is great if it has all the drivers for your hardware.

Hi Gitchigumi,
I had/have a similar problem with a Laptop of mine. It is an quad core i7 with 8Gs of memory. It is a Costco brand Cyberpower brand. The first problem was Win 10 does not have the drivers for the Qualcomm Atheros WiFi adapter in my laptop, so after the Win 10 install finished, I was not able to reconnect to the Internet via my wireless network. I went to the Qualcomm site to try to get drivers but none were available for Win 10 yet. Then the laptop display would come and go. I tried rebooting the system and it would load to a point and then just sit there with the "Gray Screen" of death, as I call it. If I just let it set for awhile, I might get my desk top to come up. I am pretty sure these are both driver problems.
After playing with it for a couple of days and not finding any new drivers. I Restored my Windows 7 configuration. It is quite easy to do. In Win10 go to "Setting", then go to "Update & Security, then to "Backup", then Restore Windows 7".
I will try to do the upgrade to Windows 10 again in another month or so and maybe the drivers for my laptop graphics adapter and WiFi adapter will be available. I loaded my desktop i7 with Win10 and it worked flawlessly.

If you don't like it when you get it you can (within 90 days) just take it or send it back. You can be sure it is not a refurbished unit or a gray market unit.

I got some really great shots of the last eclipse. I just took a quick look at it at 5:10AM PDT on the way out to the Gym. It was already half way out of the totality. Nice a clear here in SoCal.

The Full moon should be this evening be tonight.

The "super" moon is approximately 7% larger than the moon at its mean distance.
About 12% larger than the moon at apogee. So, I guess both are correct, or incorrect, depending on how you want to look at it.
Alas, the full moon is in the middle of the day for us here in the States, we won't get to see it. :-(
We can see the waxing moon tonight, or the waning moon tomorrow.
dl - a quick ( ;-) ) drive up the I-15 will put you prime desert viewing :-)

I took these shots from my backyard of the Corona City Firework display. I live up the hill about a mile above the park. It is always a good view. This was the first time I tried to shoot Firework with my new camera, or any camera for that matter. Thanks to all who posted with suggestions for how to set up the camera.

Yes, we got one also back in the 70s at the Navy exchange or Allied Forces Audio Club when we were stationed in Europe. It is still in its original box.
