I have an old desk. It's called an Army Tanker desk. It's a very nice old heavy desk, but part of the top (not sure if it's a veneer of some kind, it's "wood-look", but it's not wood) has come apart/pulled away from the desk top. Does anyone know how I can fix this? It's like a bubble right in the middle.

Sounds like the veneer separated. There are websites like this one with how to fix, but I have had no luck getting it right. They make it sound easy, but there are too many variables.
If the desk is of value, I would suggest have a professional refinisher look at it.
Be sure to get references before okaying the work.

Post back what you decide and hopefully a lovely finish to the repair!!
You will have to scrape off all the peeling veneer. Depending on how big the damaged spot is and its location will determine whether you can just fix this spot or whether you will have to refinish the entire top.
