A New Home For USS Midway Sailors

“Midway Magic” is a historical fact, forged aboard the USS Midway, the Navy’s longest-serving aircraft carrier of the 20th century — a ship that was the most powerful and sophisticated built to date, the first U.S. ship too large for the Panama Canal and the largest ship in the world for a decade.

This ship of young heroes successfully led dramatic humanitarian missions. These sailors established new naval aviation standards. They sailed patrolled uncertain seas to give mutual enemies a moment of pause. They endured and sailed beyond the end of the Cold War. They answered their nation’s call when combat was unavoidable.
We honor their legacy aboard the USS Midway Museum. We salute them when they come aboard and we offer every former USS Midway crewman a complimentary one-year museum membership.
