    I stumbled across these on NARA's website and thought it wise to post them in a less obscure area:
    USS Indianapolis CA-35, Booklet of General Plans
    These are her early 1945 plans, before the the final overhaul. But it should show th einterior spaces well and be a good start for those wanting to study her more in depth. The Booklet of General Plans was a short set mainly showing layout for purposes of "navigation" and familiarity.

    I'm interested to see these, but can't access your website. Is anyone else having problems?

    It's working for me right now.. pretty sure there's no reason I would get blocked in Canada. Is it working for you now?

    Working now. I'm not sure what the problem was before.

    You weren't holding your mouth right.

    I'm not up-to-speed with Southern slang, so I had to look that one up.

    A very nice find, Tracy. Thanks for posting it here.


    Oh, I like that one. That's going right into my "arsenal of clever remarks". I hate having an empty arsenal. :eyebrows:

    I just realized I made a mistake when I posted. I think I fixed it now. This time I held my mouth right.

    Another one of those phrases that I thought "everyone" in the English speaking world used.

    Umm, I never heard of it, either. Does that mean I'm part of the non-English speaking world?

    I've always felt a bit like a Southerner trapped in a Northerner's body, if all y'all know what I mean. :cool:
