Thank You, she's the last of the South Dakota Class, sister ships include the Massachusetts, Indiana and South Dakota !!
The M4, M26, and M60AI a welcome site.
When you stand on the deck of a battle ship you feel all is right in the world. Very nice photos.

A fantastic set of images!!!! Buck
They just don't make war ships that beautiful today. The new one are awesome and sexy, but not beautiful.

Thank You Frank !! You're right they were beautiful ships and they don't make em like that anymore !!
A most worthy tribute to our fighting men, particularly in the Navy. I visited this floating museum about 10 years ago, and recommend it for its powerful representation of military might in its time. Your black-and-white photographs do justice to this tribute.
I do not recall seeing the gun emplacement when I visited. It may be new.

Thank you for this post. I'm not a fan of B&W but these are absolutely beautiful photographs. From a former Aircraft Carrier Sailor it was always a comfort to see the escorts out there on the horizon.
