Summary[edit]

Description
English: San Diego, Calif. (Jan. 5, 2004) -- A tugboat tows the decommissioned aircraft carrier Midway into San Diego bay. The 968-foot carrier completed a six-day journey from Oakland, Calif. Midway will be moored temporarily at Naval Air Station North Island, Calif., to take-on restored historical aircraft and will soon be homeported across the bay in San Diego, as the centerpiece for our nation's biggest museum devoted to carriers and naval aviation. When commissioned on September 10, 1945 as USS Midway (CVB 41) she was the largest carrier ever put to sea.
