USS Harry S Truman CVN-75 08 May 2003

Post by PaulN » Sun Oct 27, 2024 10:07 am

Hi All

Just being doing some tidying up in one of my cupboards and came across a pack of negs , it was these :Wow:

I thought I would share them with you seeing as the Truman is in our waters once again with some very nice diversions into Mildenhall , these were taken 21 years ago on her first visit to our shores , where has the time gone :S

They were all taken on board at Stokes Bay in the Solent with a nice visiting MH-53E from HC-4 doing supply flights

Anyway on with the pics , I hope you enjoy them

Cheers

Paul

Wow, what a selection of types at that time. I have never managed to get on board a live carrier (just the pair of museums stateside), very envious.

Great stuff Paul - good to see from the time you were allowed to visit the carriers when they visited Portsmouth

Hope you are keeping well

The links seem to be broken. I flew onboard the Truman courtesy of the MH-53's that operated from Lyneham.
