    RARE USS MIDWAY CVB-41 News Rotogravure Supplement OPERATION FROSTBITE  28 March 1946
    US Navy Aircraft Carrier
    From the beginning of its service, the Midway played key roles in the Cold War. In 1946 it became the first American carrier to operate in the midwinter sub-Arctic, developing new flight deck procedures.
    This is an exceptionally rare OPERATION  FROSTBITE supplement to the ship's newsletter. I have several others in the first run of newsletters that are listed for sale in my store.
    Important Notes for Buyers:
    Newsletter is from the estate of a USS Midway former sailor and plankowner (a member of the first crew to man a US Navy ship.) Note - the manila envelope with the sailors name is not included and is only shown as proof of provenance.
    Condition is "Used". Shipped with USPS First Class.
