USS Midway Aircraft Carrier Museum

The USS Midway is an Aircraft carrier that served from 1945 to 1992 and is now a museum in San Diego. I visited it in December of last year. I was here for about 90 minutes and could have spent another hour here to see everything.
 The internal flight bay of the carrier.
One of the many aircraft in the internal flight bay is the SBD Dauntless.
 The crew storage for personal effects were under the bunks.
 They were pretty cramped.
 The officers definitely had it better.
The anchor chain area at the bow of the carrier is quite spacious as well.
 A part of the operations room.
 The computer system for the ship's gyroscope.
 There were also multiple aircraft of the flight deck.
I would come back again in the future.
