NEWPORT, Rhode Island (June 2, 2017) Angus Ross, a Joint Military Operations professor at U.S. Naval War College (NWC), gives a Lecture of Opportunity at the Naval War College Museum for the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Midway. In honor of the 75th anniversary of the battle, the Naval War College Museum in conjunction with the Naval History and Heritage Command unveiled a new exhibit featuring new documentary sources and artifacts. Displays include models of the key warships and aircraft involved in the battle produced by Ross and Jeff Landsman, an associate professor at NWC. Drawing from their historical expertise, they used original documentary sources and consulted with underwater archaeologists to render the model warships. In addition, Rob Doane, chief curator, included previously unseen images of the battle. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 2nd Class Jess Lewis/Released)
