Description
Own a piece of Naval History: The USS Midway (CV-41) 1990-1991 "Desert Magic" Cruise Book.
This rare, original hardcover cruise book chronicles the final combat deployment of the legendary aircraft carrier USS Midway. Serving as the flagship for Battle Force Zulu in the Persian Gulf, the Midway played a pivotal role in Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm.
This volume includes:
• Crew Portraits: Thousands of individual photos of the sailors and officers who served during the Gulf War.
• Combat Operations: High-quality action photography of flight deck operations, F/A-18 Hornets, and A-6 Intruders launching for combat missions.
• Historical Timeline: A detailed record of the ship’s movements from Yokosuka, Japan, to the North Arabian Sea.
• Special Sections: Coverage of the "Desert Magic" theme, camouflage artwork, and the homecoming celebration.
Condition Note:
• Ex: The binding is tight and the pages are crisp. There is minor shelf wear on the red textured cover as shown in the photos. No missing pages or ink markings inside.
Why this book is special: The Midway was decommissioned shortly after this cruise (1992), making this one of the final and most sought-after records of the ship’s 47-year legacy. It is a must-have for Gulf War veterans, military historians, or collectors of Naval memorabilia.
