Description


Originally designed as a battle-cruiser, launched in 1925 as an aircraft carrier, CV-2 Lexington goes down at the Battle of Coral Sea on May 8, 1942. Having taken two torpedo hits from N-5 "Kates" and three bomb hits from Aichi D3A "Val" dive bombers the 880 foot carrier suffered subsequent massive explosions caused by gasoline vapors. They attacked me at a moment when I was weakest, but the LORD upheld me.

cool pitcure, just saw an email today that they made a warship call the uss new yorker out of the twin towers - it looks tough.... He, can you email me some links on star trek? I need the Bridge, Scotty, Sulu, Checkov, N. Chapel, Yoeman Rand... and the Old Eterprise with the radar dish... I have some links, but I'm not finding these. At sharecg.com, there is an artist named werts who has made head morphs for Kirk, Spock, McCoy, and Uhura.
