USS George Washington arriving in Yokosuka.

To mark the arrival of the USS George Washington in Yokosuka, Kanagawa Pref. on Sept. 25, 2008, I have added photos of the aircraft carrier arriving in Yokosuka as well as photos of the USS Kitty Hawk, USS Independence, and USS Midway. Some photos were taken by the US Navy. The GW is the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier to be deployed in Japan. It has over 5,000 crew and over 70 planes.

I also once toured the USS Independence and USS Midway in Yokosuka and included those pictures as well.

I have a few more new cards showing the Laughing Geisha. Most of the comments were also transferred to the new location.
