<p>[QUOTE=&quot;yourturntoloveit, post: 48215, member: 57&quot;]<u>KingofThings</u>, DH and I visited the <u>Olympia</u> in 1986, and when I told DH about your posting(s) on the <u>Olympia</u> he immediately said &quot;I stood in the brass footprints on the bridge of the ship commemorating where Dewey stood to give the &quot;fire when you are ready Gridley&quot; command.&nbsp; DH said it was the high point of our trip to Philadelphia and he remembers it vividly after all these years.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>DH says it shows a view of shipboard life in those days that he hasn&#039;t seen anywhere else and <u>everyone</u> needs to see it.&nbsp; He can&#039;t believe they would let it rot away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
