Thanks for the kind words everyone. Just a quick update. During my research, I stumbled on the website of Kevin Healy, a lawyer in California, who is not only a Navy Reserve officer himself, but is the grandson of Commander Howard Raymond Healy, for whom the ship is named. I emailed him some photos and he will be linking several of the images of the ship to his website. What an honor!!!

very nice, love the presentation too. I checked out your gallery, you have a great range of detailed builds - subs, artillery, ships, tanks, fantastic stuff. Varied and interesting, like your military career. Thanks for leting us have a look!
