I’m saying its the Lexington. The conning tower has that telltale cross section at the top and that deck gun has a platform forward of it that doesn’t appear on the Saratoga. The deck gun is too big to be from the Enterprise.

BroJoeK: "I'm saying today's photos are of Lady Lex."

CougarGA7: "I’m saying its the Lexington."

So there you have it. In the face of this historic accord I would be foolish to maintain my contrarian position. The Lexington she is.
