The great United States Ship Midway anchored off the coast of Western Australia near Fremantle (just south of Perth). September 1977 during a 5-day liberty port visit by the Midway and Air Wing 5 (CVW5).

Starboard side aft with F-4 Phantoms on the flight deck.
Camera: Yashica TL Electro-X on Kodacolor
