Aydin Diaby: 19 Year-Old Creates IOWA Model From Scratch!
Update: 2024-06-25
Description
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.
