thanks, that's a great site. My grandfather just gave me all of his old photos a lot of them are from his pearl harbor days so I got to get to work on some art prints. They are uber cool!

Photos of nearly every ship and small craft commissioned in the US Navy, from the advent of photography. Tons of crazy stuff in here; wild camo schemes, kamikaze attacks the photographer couldn't have survived, weird transitional designs from the early post-sail days. Naval history buffs will lose themselves for hours here.
