#navycarriercentennial here is USS Tarawa (1986) returning to San Diego (32nd Street), she still has her 5”/54 guns as well as Sea Sparrow launchers. Note the top of her main mast is being raised as she had just passed under the Coronado Bridge. #lha1 #usnavy #navalaviation #marineaviation #usstarawa #sandiego #aviationsafari #aviationpreservation #boneyardsafari
