Celebrate one of the greatest ships to ever sail the seven seas! This amazing piece commemorates the legendary USS Midway, the US Navy's longest-serving Aircraft Carrier of the 20th Century. Celebrating over six decades of the CV-41, from its order in 1942, through to its opening as the San Diego Aircraft Carrier Museum in 2004, this poster has it all: photography, schematics, historical moments, patches, and more. From its launching in 1945, to its role in maintaining the post-WWII peace, to its active duty in Vietnam and Operation Desert Storm, to its final decommissioning in 1992, the entire arc of the vessel's lifetime is here. Skillfully designed by the military historians at the Eurographics poster company, this is perfect for the wall of home, office, classroom, veterans center, military base, or museum!
