Topic: USS Constitution sails again.
20 AUG 2012 at 5:03pm clifford1944 Centurion Offline From Yahoo news:
"The 215-year-old USS Constitution has sailed for the first time since 1997, taking a 17-minute cruise across Boston Harbor. The short trip on Sunday, August 19, was to commemorate the Navy ship's victory over a British warship during the War of 1812. Following the battle, the Constitution was nicknamed "Old Ironsides.""
They have pictures there. Mighty good looking ship. Also I think that she was saved from scrapping with the poem "Old Ironside". Would have loved to have seen the sail.
"Ay, tear her tattered ensign down!
Long has it waived on high,
And many an eye has danced to see
That banner in the sky;"
Great ship!
"A little time on the Eastern Front will clear his head" General Burkhalter
