sigsaye Posted January 15, 2015 Share #11 Posted January 15, 2015 Maine's mast after removal. Bain News Service circa 1911. 09354v.jpg. Interestingly, one mast is in Arlington National Cemetary. The other is at the Naval Academy. In 2004, a group of us were at the Academy doing a CW presentation on USS Constelation. One night, we sat under the mast with a few beers (against everyone's regulations, but most of us were retired Sailors so the Heck with 'EM). Hoisted a few to the Main and her crew. It was a good time 09355v.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
