Old Ironsides refloated!

[Albany Rifles]

After 26 months the USS Constitution returns to the water. I got to see her last year in drydock and owuld hav eloved to have seen the refloat...I left Boston on Sunday AM to begin the drive home to Virginia! What an idiot I am!

2 good articles about the refloat. The Globe has a nice graphic on what work was done. The Sunday Globe on 16 July had a full page spread with more indepth coverage....behind a pay wall though.
