The USS Midway was commissioned in 1945 as the largest ship in the world. It was named after the battle of Midway which was considered the U.S. Navy's greatest victory during WWII.

The aircraft carrier saw action in Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf War. It was decommissioned in 1992 in San Diego and opened as a Museum in 2004.
