| Battleship Cove Tour |
|
On Saturday, June 26th, our group visited Battleship Cove, which is the world's largest collection of Historic Naval Ships. Our Memorial Service, for those shipmates who have passed away, was held on the Battleship Massachusett's fantail.
The group had lunch in the Officer's Wardroom. The group also toured the Destroyer, USS Joseph P. Kennedy (DD-850), the attack submarine USS Lionfish (SS-298), the Soviet-built Missile Corvette Hiddensee and PT Boats 617 and 796. |
