maskedtyper, from Illinois
Galley is operational on the Yorktown and well worth the money for lunch. If you have time, the different self-guided tours of the ship are all worth seeing. Very nicely done; one gets to experience first hand life on a carrier. Docents are wonderful, some having first-hand experience of their descriptions and explanations. Excellent place to discover history!
