Great pics! I hope I'm not being a nit-picker or overly critical, but there were four battleships in the Iowa-class. The Iowa (BB-61), New Jersey (BB-62), Missouri (BB-63), and Wisconsin (BB-64). Several others were planned (USS Illinois and USS Kentucky) but never completed/commissioned due to the end of WWII. I've been fortunate enough to visit the Missouri and New Jersey. You captured the power of this magnificent class of Battleships in your images. Best wishes.
