Draggingtree Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Battleship New Jersey: You've Never Seen New Jersey Like This - YouTube The largest battleship ever built is also the longest serving and most decorated. She's headed for dry dock next month for some needed repairs. I took my Father to see the ship about a year before he died. He was so overcome with emotion on seeing the ship again that he started crying almost the moment we boarded her. I can't imagine the flood of emotions he went through that day - he had briefly served on her back in June of '43 before he was transferred to an LST and fought in the Battle of Leyte Gulf.
