The USS Midway was the longest-serving aircraft carrier in the 20th century. Named after the climactic Battle of Midway of June 1942, Midway was built in only 17 months but missed World War II by one week when commissioned on Sept. 10, 1945. Midway was the first in a three-ship class of large carriers that featured an armored flight deck and a powerful air group of 120 planes. The Midway was decommissioned on April 11, 1992 and remained in the inactive ship fleet in Bremerton, Washington, until 2003. It opened as the USS Midway Museum in June 2004.

Hiking

Definitely worth seeing, even if the entrance fee has become quite expensive at over $30. Requires at least 2 hours.
