After the soldiers retired, they will be forgotten. The fate of the warships is roughly two kinds. One is to be sunk on the battlefield, and the seabed is buried with infinite regret. The other is to bring the scars to the end of the war and retired. Even if the end of life is dead, most of the end of the life record can not escape the fate of being sent to the shipyard for dismantling. But there are still some warships that will have a much better result, which is to become a battleship museum for people to visit.
When I came to the Hudson River at Pier 85, the Intrepid aircraft carrier was like a giant beast. Before I came to New York, I really didnt know there was such a fascinating sight. As the world's few aircraft carriers to visit, the Intrepid is the biggest one. The
fearless aircraft carrier was launched for the first time on April 26, 1943. It was finally retired on March 15, 1974. It was awarded two naval collective awards and won five battle stars in World War II and Vietnam. Can be described as outstanding merits.
On March 15, 1974, the "Fearless" retired and was once ready to sell the dismantling, but with the efforts of civil society organizations, the Navy donated the "Intrepid" to New York City as a museum ship in 1981. In 1982, the "Fearless" was borrowed from the Navy. In the same year, the "Intrepid Sea and Air Museum" was officially opened to the public on the Hudson River. Since then, it has become an important landmark and tourist attraction in Manhattan.
This is one place you must visit. Not only because of what happened & to pay your respects. This will move you if it doesn’t there is something wrong with you.
