The car was not the deep red that we are used to today. It had a sort of almost orange shade in it when it was out in the sun. And yes, being on the Missouri was a very impressive thing. It was like my first trip through one of the Air force C-5A Galaxies. Those things are so huge it is hard to imagine them flying, let alone hauling the amount of cargo they do.
It had been raining just before I took the picture of the Missouri. It rains every day in Washington. I had to spend my last 9 months in the service there after getting back from Korea, and I don't think there was over 4 days the whole time that it never showered at least once a day. But there is some beautiful country up there and I did get to go to the World Fair they had in Seattle as it was very close. Also spent a day or so in the Olympic Rain Forrest.
