WWII veterans gather for final USS Franklin reunion

Navy Capt. Thomas Bailey, Joint Base Charleston deputy commander, and retired U.S. Marine Corps Maj. Gen. Jim Livingston, walk down the pier toward the USS Yorktown (CV 10) May 17, 2013, at Patriots Point Naval and Maritime Museum, Mount Pleasant, S.C., as surviving crewmembers of the USS Franklin (CV-13), gathered at Patriots Point for their final reunion. In honor of the historic event, Patriots Point hosted a series of events and educational programs throughout the day to allow the public an opportunity to speak with and hear from veterans. More than 20 remaining crewmembers of the Franklin attended the reunion. (U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt. Anthony Hyatt)
