- Featured here is the Blue Ghost herself! With nearly half a century of service, the Lexington has a ton of history laid down by her keel and crew - the please enjoy this drone experience!
Filmed on my vacation

My dad was part of the original crew of the USS Lexington - he was called a "plank walker" and boarded up in Quncy Shipyards near Boston. He served from 1943-1945. My dad passed in 2007 and we scattered part of his ashes on the flight deck.
That’s really cool. I’m thankful for his service 🙏
@@KillerXTV Thank you !
WOW. I think this is genuinely one of the prettiest things I've ever seen in my life. Lexington is truly beautiful. Something about the SCB-125 angled deck add-on to the old Essex-class is just amazing. IN THE MOST STUNNING 4K I'VE EVER SEEN. That definition is truly something. I genuinely teared up because this ship was my childhood and having just found this video now . . . wow. Definitely worth sharing! So underrated!
Thank you for such a wonderful tribute. The Lexington (CVT-16/AVT-16) was my second home when I enlisted. I was proud to serve onboard from 1977-1980. Met shipmates who were my brothers and still are to this day. She was and still is a grand Lady..
please share it with any vets you know or anyone interested in Naval history - I made this for people like us and them :)

It's hard to think to myself when seeing those ww2 scenes of the USS Lexington and say to myself "I've been in that ship before.."
beautifully done..a great tribute to the Lexington.
Tank you my friend i am lost for words, i am a big fan of US. Batllechips great job well done!! From Portugal 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹👍👍🙌🙌👏👏✌️✌️❤️❤️
Nice soundtrack.
Excellent work all around.
Man when Lexington was in the fog, it gave me the chills. Very ghastly shot well done!
Working on a directors cut.....trust me....much more fog ;)
This is just gold. This is so under rated some reason.
then share it - I put a lot of time and editing into this video ;)
Amazing story, incredible drone work and editing! 🤘👏👏
that is a very beautiful ship
It looks incredible. The historical bit at the beginning was pretty cool. Nice video. Music is perfect
thank you! I put a lot of extra effort into this one - given the subject matter.
Great video
I spent 3 nights on that ship a few years ago when I was in AFJROTC. Beautiful ship, that one. You can still see some battle damage on the starboard side. Bullet holes, dents, scuffs and scratches. The AA guns still work when it comes to traversal and elevational movement. Not sure about the bigger guns on the flight deck though. Pretty sure the ship can still turn on as well if I remember correctly. Engine bay seemed mostly intact.
hope you enjoyed the video ;)
@@bsgtrekfan88 I did. It was very well made. Great footage and great choice of music.
The Texas fleet grows stronger we already have the most badass Battleship and now we have an air craft carrier
. . . You did see my Texas video right? :) enjoy
Yea that’s why I said the most badass battlship
Aka the USS texas
And yes I did see it
Lol I was being sarcastic - but I did the sub and destroyer Texas has too
Dang so the Texas fleet really is growing stronger I’m gonna go watch those vids
Beautiful shots!!
Beautifully done.
WOW love it.
They should get bb35 Texas to lexington or lxington t bb35 texas -both tell history and stories on her own - both stand their ground proudly
Absolutely! I trust you saw my Texas video right? :-) Enjoy
@@bsgtrekfan88 of course - i still have the hope they refit texas steam engines and boilers to let the old girl run on own power - steaming full ahead
tbh modern destroyers is like a kids drawing of a battle ship and old destroyers are more complicated to draw
I mean look at one of the American destroyers its like an ice cream up side down and its sharp end is catted off
the thumbnail is the same shot from movie pearl harbor when the helicopter shot straight towards the lexington and b25
I spent about two hours that night trying to get as many photos as I could because of the fog the best wind conditions I saw the whole week I was there etc. but if you would like to see more photos let me know I can send you the link :-) but I was pretty happy with the final result of that thumbnail picture :-) the contrasting blue versus the greens etc. the ocean etc.
This is very well done, but I wish that you would have flown the drone at a lower speed.

no offense
.............and?
