Served aboard the
Midway V-2 Div from 1952-1954. Was transferred from the Midway in
Dec 1954 just before the World Cruise because I was a "short
timer". Would like to hear from anybody out there who worked in
the Aviation Radio Shop during the 1952-1954 time period. |

Served onboard 76-78
in VF-161
I'm (I can't believe I'm saying this) gonna travel across this
great country one more time just to board this great ship. After I
left her, I went straight to the USS Ike. That's when I realized
what a fantastic ship the Midway is! |

Hello, thought I would
let you know that I too had nothing but great memories of Midway
Magic. I served with VA 56 during the Apr72-Mar73 cruise. Again
during 90-93 with the World Famous Golden Dragons. Also made the
swap over with the Indy. Take care and keep Midway Magic alive and
well. |

I was in HS-12 from
6/84 (when we replaced HC-1) all the until we swapped over to the
Indy. I was an AW aircrewman/rescue swimmer. I have many GREAT
memories from my 'Midway Magic' years, and I pass along my very
best regards to all of my former shipmates.

GREAT WEBSITE!
You have done an awesome job with the website. Even found a
picture of my old workspace:
http://www.midwaysailor.com/davestarr/davestarr-098b.jpg This
is the communications center in the 02 level next to the Admiral
spaces. I can't even begin to tell you how many times I scrubbed
that blue rubber matting you can see under the teletype.
Keep up the great work!
