Save the USS Olympia!


A post over at TMP, by porfirio rubirosa, has alerted me to the fact that the USS Olympia, surviving veteran of the SpanAm War, is in serious need of some TLC, and the Navy apparently does not have the funds to see this through (a scandal, I tell, you Gridley....you may fire when ready!).


Please, any Pre-dreadnoughters out there, take some time to consider a donation - there aren't too many of her kind left, and it would be a tragedy to see her sunk after all these years!
