Description
Per my promise, here is another montage of two photos of the USS Olympia. It's a bigger and clearer view of this grand old warship from the Spanish-American War.

she is a beautiful ship even if for war.excellent post work
It's good to see she's been so well looked after. Thanks for posting this.
@KatesFriend: Tourists aren't currently alllowed on deck because the museum is preparing to repair it. The interior looks great and is more than worth a look.
Good shot again erland
Beautiful shot!
Center 5" gun from the batter is missing! PW or they doing odd things to her? Now if this was NOT such a great photo, I'd not have noticed that! ;-)
@weesel: The 5 incher is missing in real lfe. You might notice that the forward 5 inch turrets are different from the afters. I'm not sure which is the original type. I suspect the metal turrets forward. The glass aft is probably a "display" type so you can see into the admiral's cabin.
Beautiful capture!!
Lovely shot!!!!
Weesel knows Buff.... he can call you on it! lol... This is a much superior look at the old iron lady! well done!!!
Well done ,I really like the bow lines
These are wonderful views of this classic old ship.
Good to see old Teddy 's favorite ship !
"You may fire when ready, Gridley." Cool pic, built a model of that when I was a kid but haven't seen it for real, thanks for sharing!
Beautiful shot!
Thanks for this excellent shot. Can you imagine, this ship did its' thing about 110 years ago. It looks like the folks looking after her have done a good job. Several years ago she was in pretty sad shape. Have a couple of Admiral Dewey pieces of antique memorabilia (water pitchers, plates and postcards). Well done.
Cheers for the link, my friend. A fine and interesting shot of an old ship. Has it been restored now? Rob.
Great capture of Commodore Dewy's flagship Rog!
