Navy Day 1945
The great Navy Day Fleet Review held in the Hudson River off New York City, 27 October 1945.President Truman is down there on the battleship Missouri while the new brand-new, just commissioned that morning super-carrier, the 968-foot USS Franklin D. Roosevelt (CV-42) is clearly visible. To the left you see the Empire State Building and the 1940s Gotham skyline. Quite a bookend to Pearl Harbor
