Happy Birthday.
I visited the National Museum of Nuclear Science & History yesterday and got this image of an A7 Corsair II in their back lot.

with over 580 built and operational they were a carrier plane flown, seen and serviced by many Navy men during the 70’s and 80’s

This one is the trainer variant.

Ditto on the Birthday wishes! As I've posted before my oldest brother was a career Naval Officer and a grad of USNA. I have the utmost respect for his service and the service of all others is what I think you can call the greatest organization on the planet. BTW, I'm reading a book titled Six Frigates, by Ian Toll, which is about the formation of the Navy in the pre-history and early history of this country. Highly recommend.
