What a coincidence....or would it just be ironic that i got to stand on the wooden deck just in front of the forward gun mount when another battlewagon of the Iowa Class put into port at Long Beach CA. I gotta tell ya, there was a whole lot of emotions seeping out of those old planks.
Also saw the New Jersey off some palm tree lined coasts a bunch of times.
Bull Sharks eh....tow me to St. Louis, MO...yeah, i just bet NatGeo would buy into that for a couple of bucks. Wow.
Thanks for your service BK.
Sorry for the major hijack Joe, but the pic of the New Jersey was sure a site for sore eyes.
Cheers,
