I toured her in either New London or Groton (don't remember) in the mid 1980's. She is truly beautiful. Thank you for the pics.

flotco,
Nice photo!

I never knew she was originally a German ship.

I have never taken a tour, but it was pretty cool to stand alongside her in New London this past month.
Here are some additional photos:

Charleston Harbor June 29, 2009. My wife and I were in Charleston during the Tall Ships Festival
And although I didn't take this one I think the C17 coming over the Cooper River Bridge is pretty awesome.

Tarnold,
Something looks very fake about that photo.

Are you sure that it is real???
