USS Midway Veterans Association (MVA)
The MVA will hold its 2020 reunion in Norfolk, Virginia, at the Sheraton Norfolk Waterside, a property known for its military-friendly environment and its close proximity to many reunion attractions. Reunion dates have been set for September 9-13, 2020, with Sept. 9 designated for early registration and Sept. 13 designated for checkout. September 10-12, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, will be the days on which tours and activities will take place. There is a wealth of things to do in Norfolk and the surrounding environs such as visiting the Norfolk Naval Base, the Norfolk MacArthur Center, and the USS Wisconsin Battleship Museum, to name just a few.
We will provide a link to the hotel's reunion reservation site soon.
At this reunion, we look forward to providing a venue for the many Midway veterans who live east of the Mississippi River and who don't often get a chance to attend a San Diego reunion. These veterans are proud of their service aboard USS Midway, and we will be honored to have them attend our 2020 reunion with their family members and guests. We have also extended an invitation to the veterans of Midway's sister carriers USS Franklin D. Roosevelt and USS Coral Sea to attend this reunion.
Much more information on MVA's 2020 reunion to follow on this website. Stayed tuned.
If you have questions on MVA reunions, contact reunion chairman Jim Hayter at phone no. 703-264-0542 or email him at mva41vpr@comcast.net.
