Came across this vid on the ‘tube. Nice detail of the history of the naval facility a few miles from my place . nice FHC tie-in - There is mention of the base hiring a forester in the fifties to bring the land and forest back to snuff. That was my father. When I took a woodland owner class on handling the timber resources, they mention Crane as a great example of good timber stand improvement. fun video with some tree education mixed in.
Great video, the Constitution is well known in New England to all of us. Midwinter posted some great pics of the Constitutions' annual turnaround in Boston Harbor on the 4th of July every year. The ship is on active duty at that time and the call goes out to the Atlantic fleet informing them of such. Many great photos, some of which Molly posted were of the U.S. Navy Blue Angels flying in formation over the Constitution under sail. Photos of such can be found you know where.
