from Scuttlebutt: Official Podcast of the National Museum of the Surface Navy · host National Museum of the Surface Navy
Out of the blue a few months ago, we got an email from a young man from the Philadelphia area. Aydin Diaby is 19 and a self-taught model maker. When he and his brother visited Battleship IOWA in April 2023, Aydin was so inspired, he went home, literally made a 4-foot model of the ship on his own, then reached out to let us know what he'd done.We were intrigued, and our communications team - in the person of volunteer Ron Ploof, reached out to get Aydin's story. Turns out model-making isn't this extraordinary guy's only intriguing interest.We've been so delighted getting to know him, we had to share him with you.* * * *Want to❤️ Support the ship? https://www.pacificbattleship.com/donate/donate-online⚓ Come aboard for a tour? https://www.pacificbattleship.com/museum_visit🙋 Volunteer with us? https://www.pacificbattleship.com/get-involved/volunteer🎖️ Get involved in our veterans' programs? https://pacificbattleship.com/get-involved/veteranYou can also⭐ Contribute to the National Museum of the Surface Navy https://www.surfacenavymuseum.org/donateFeedback?
