About USS Midway
USS Midway is an aircraft carrier, formerly of the United States Navy, the lead ship of her class. Commissioned a week after the end of World War II, Midway was the largest ship in the world until 1955, as well as the first U. S. aircraft carrier too big to transit the Panama Canal.
