The Shut-In Gazette #05

Welcome to another week of our once-in-a-lifetime shared pandemic event...

This week I've linked three military stories that I thought you would enjoy.  Just click on the appropriate links to get to them.

The first is a video story that I found on the BBC online service about the USS Nevada.  (Note there may be a brief Windows commercial at the beginning of the video.) https://www.bbc.com/news/av/world-us-canada-52684890/world-war-two-us-navy-ship-discovered-in-pacific-ocean

Story number two, also from the BBC, is about the Navy's newest aircraft carrier USS Doris Miller (to be commissioned in 2028) and the history of her namesake.  This is an article that you have to read, no video is included.  https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-51168798

Item number three is a wonderful collection of still photos of the  Cascade Warbirds members flying a V-E Day Remembrance Flight on May 8th this year.  Click on one of the still photos to get to the albums.  My friend Barb Michieli sent this to me.  https://www.cascadewarbirds.org/2020/05/07/cascade-warbirds-members-to-fly-in-v-e-day-remembrance-flight/?fbclid=IwAR1Ep8nQMmtUSuK67e34ZdKPuqk3Oc8qcRJAhO9XkAuSxUswv5KXA0h-bmw

Enjoy these and stay safe!
