Ditto.
Here's a link to a page in the Model Ships site about the Conny: http://shipmodeling.info/ironsides_page.htm Try to view it with Internet Explorer (won't work with Netscape) so you can hear the Navy Hymn. |

If you ever get the chance to visit Boston, you'll love visiting the Conny. What a amazing job they did of restoring her. =D> I was there about two years ago. What a feeling you get when you're standing on the deck. You can feel the history of this great vessel and its' past crews. The Museum is just loaded with all kinds of artifacts and old documents. I also realized just how tall I am (6'2"). If I had ever served onboard when she was in active service, I would have knock myself out silly. I don't know how those sailors lived in such tight quarters? And I thought we had it bad on the Kitty Hawk! I'm glad the Navy is taking such good care of her.

I noticed the NRG offers their back issues of the Nautical Research Journal on 2 CDs, all 40 volumes, indexed! Is it worth the $80 if you are a member? This seems like a treasure trove of info.

Worth the money. You can save or copy the disks to a file on your hard drive for faster access (provided you have the extra space).
