Description: Point Loma, Calif. (Jan. 5, 2004) -- A tugboat tows the decommissioned aircraft carrier Midway past Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery to San Diego Bay. Midway will be moored temporarily at Naval Air Station North Island to take-on restored historical aircraft and will soon be homeported across the bay in San Diego, as the center piece for our nation's biggest museum devoted to carriers and naval aviation. When commissioned on September 10, 1945 as USS Midway (CVB 41) she was the largest carrier ever put to sea.
