1/700 USS Enterprise CVN-65 (Revell)
It is with a tinge of sadness I note that CVN 65 Enterprise is on her
last deployment before being retired. My model of her is a slightly modified
Revell version, built mainly as I remember her from having the honor of
working aboard as a civilian photojournalist for the Milwaukee Sentinel
in Dec., 1968. Along with photos of my model I have included some of the
images I shot from that most memorable trip, although some of the color
shots have slightly faded. The arresting landing aboard her and catapult
take-off in a Grumman C1-A Trader were a fun ride. Hats Off to all who
served aboard this great ship!
