One more of your wonderful models of our Nations history----I look forward to many more that will tell our kids what we did after all of us are long gone---I have been to Nauticus with several of my grandchildren when my wife was stiil here as my 1st Mate----your model will just make the place a bit better for future generations----God is Good, as he gave you the skills to be a master model maker----thanks for remembering us---

WOW, Bill! Kudos and kowtows to you! This is one grrreat work. I'm a naval history enthusiast from the Philippines and I do some scratchbuilding myself - micro 1/1000 scale though. I'm making a 1:1000 CVE-26 USS Sangamon and photos of your work make a rich source of reference for me. So - much thanks, more power and all the best. Ady Yazon, Quezon City, The Philippines

Bill's magnificent Santee {CVE-29} needs to be seen . There is so much information for the scratch builder to follow and like ARHs builds takes time to digest. At the same time viewing the craftmanship always provides that kick of inspiration that we all need from time to time .

Very nice work. I hope to have my hull by the end of the month to start on the same ship but in R/C I hope I can do her as much justice as you have done.
