    The image shows two men inside what appears to be a naval vessel, likely the USNS Comfort, based on the visible 'COMFORT' sign on the wall. One man is wearing a dark business suit and the other is in U.S. Navy camouflage (NWU Type III) uniform with a black cap. They appear to be engaged in a tour or briefing near specialized seating equipment.

    Museum Educator AJ Orlikoff from the Hampton Roads Naval Museum tours the Mercy-Class hospital ship USNS Comfort (T-AH-20) prior to delivering a presentation concerning the Battle of Midway. The tour was facilitated by ABF1 Mikhail Levin and HM1 Edna Wallace. The presentation is in tandem with NAVADMIN 067/19, which denotes June 2019 as the 77th anniversary for one of the nation’s most historically significant naval victories. The Battle of Midway occurred on June 3-7, 1942; and changed the tide of war in the Pacific during WWII. During the engagement with Japanese Forces, 347 American servicemembers perished.
