I served aboard the Midway on westpac 1965 with HU1. I have a lot of memories of the Midway, some fond and some not so fond. As the evacuation of the USS Frank Knox after it ran aground on a reef. We removed 155 personnel from the Knox and everyone came up the rescue hoist. And riding out a typhoon with 100 mph wind across the deck.

I was aboard the Midway from Sept. 1960 thru Feb. 1964. I was in E-division as an Electricians Mate 2/c and wouldn't trade the experience for anything.

I served onboard from 8-84 to 7-86, was the highlight of 4 years in Navy. Great memories of the liberty ports and being up on the bridge as quartermaster. Going to San Diego in July to tour hotel 41.

aka "Scotty" YN3 X-Division, Served aboard 1974 to 1976. Onboard for Operation Frequent Wind.
Would like to hear from my old shipmates again. I visited the Midway again after 30yrs, seeing her again brought back a lot of memories long forgotten. She is the finest & newest Aircraft Carrier Museum. San Diego is very lucky to have her home again where she belongs. Just wish I lived closer to see her more often.

My dad Thomas Rice served on the Midway 1941 to 1945. My dad passed away 10/2004. Always talked about his navy days. Will be visiting the ship the week of July 15th with my family. Have a picture of the crew and my dad in his uniform. How do I go about getting this on display? Thanks
