Mark and Morgan Adams
return to Patriots Point (12/22/09)
|
2009
On December 22, 2009 Mark and his
daughter, Morgan, returned for another visit to Patriots Point Naval &
Maritime Museum in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina.
There had been a major change at
Patriots Point since their last visit. The Destroyer USS Laffey had been moved
to another location in Charleston for major renovation. The previous year Mark
and Morgan couldn't tour the ship due to the problems they were having at the
time. And due to the on-going economic problems of "The Great
Recession" that started the year before, Patriots Point was forced to sell
the USS Ingham Coast Guard Cutter to a museum in Florida. So on the day of their
visit Mark and Morgan could only tour the USS Yorktown aircraft carrier and the
USS Clamagore Submarine.
