Thought I would announce this and get Freeper feedback. Thanks in advance.

Nice site Jeff. The only suggesting I can think of now is you may want to identify their home port.

I remember visiting Brest France in the early to mid 90's. I was working with a French engineering firm on a joint US- French naval weapons program when my French companion gave me a brief tour of this port city and I remember seeing the Gen. Charles De Gualle in port.

As an interesting aside, my French companion told me that Brest was destroyed by allied bombing in WWII. According to him it was a port for German subs during the Vichey reign. Hence the bombing.

Hiya Jeff,

Good site. Not to pick nits or anything (smile), but I did notice several typos on various pages while I was looking the site over. Very interesting pages, and since I spent a good portion of my Navy time with the Amphib Navy, might I suggest that adding historical pages showing the Navy's LPHs, LPDs and other amphib ships that were air ops capable. For instance, my first ship, USS Fresno (LST1182) conducted air ops landing and launching AV-8 Harriers on our 2 helo pad flight deck. Keep up the good work!

PING to my military/veterans list for a great new site by Jeff Head.

I know we've got carriers too wide for the Panama Canal, but "world-wide" strains credulity.

Jeff,

Thanks for putting this site together.

Two thoughts:

First, it sure proves that the US is the world's babysitter.

Second, what's with all those ski ramps on the front? Most everybody else seems to be using them. Are we missing out on a design benefit?

Jeff; I was stationed aboard the USS Midway during the Iranian Crisis (Ayatollah Khomenei and that b***ard Jimmy Carter for those too young to remember). Any info on what happened to her, as I do not see her listed, or her sister ship the Coral Sea?

[Treader]

Thanks for the "Heads Up"...Nicely done, JH!

Good quick glance comparisons. I'll bookmark it to go with HazeGray http://www.hazegray.org/worldnav/ . Warships1 used to have some good material, but they've pulled most of their content. They still have some good material on naval guns.

When you get into the historical carriers don't forget Paddle wheel carriers.

The Varyag was sold to the Chinese without engines or rudders. Until we actually see her underway under her own power you might want to rate her speed as 0.

Ping.

What a great idea! I'm sure you'll get a great deal of interest (and marketable hits!) with this site!

Two suggestions:

1. At some point, put up a "Historic Aircraft Carriers" site, with all the World War II Japanese, British, and American carriers on it, and

2. Offer saleable merchandise (T-shirts, hats, etc.) I can help you with this, so contact me if you're interested.

Other than that, I see nothing that could be improved. The site is simple, quick-loading, and easy to access. Great job!


PS -- I have some ENTERPRISE photos I took while I was aboard that I can send you if you like.

PPS -- The ID silhouette of the ENTERPRISE that you're using on the site is out of date...

Thanks for putting this site up Jeff

[octobersky]

I like it! Very nice!

Good job. Had to really search to find a flaw.

But you missed the Spanish Strategic Projection Ship (laid down by IZAR September 2003)

I found your site very interesting. It was a good break from studying.

I also purchased and read the hardcover version of your book a couple of months ago. It was a very enjoyable read...are you planning any other publications?

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Cool!

I'll check it out.
