How This All Got Together

I rolled out of my sack as the bong bong of the general quarters bell sounded for the fourth time this night. I didn't have to dress as we had learned that we could get to our guns faster if we slept in our clothes. I ran up the ladder to the main deck and got to my Battle Station in eleven seconds.

I heard a loud speaker say, "All mounts, stand ready! Bogies at 30 miles and closing."

I got to wondering what I was doing in a spot like this, as a few months before I was in high school in a small town in western New York State. The biggest water I had been in was the old mill pond where we all learned to swim. Believe me, this pond here was a lot bigger, plus it had these damn Kamikazes or Bogies as we called them.

US Fast Battleships 1938-91

In 1938, the United States abandoned the constraints imposed by the Washington Treaty and began work on a new class of super-battleships. This book covers the design, construction, and employment of the four Iowa-class battleships, the largest in the American fleet. During World War II, they served as guards for the aircraft carriers and their bombardments provided cover for the numerous landings in the Pacific. At the war's end, the Japanese signed their surrender on the decks of an Iowa-class battleship, the USS Missouri. After World War II, the ships continued to serve, providing support during Korea, Vietnam, and even the first Gulf War. This book tells the full story of the greatest of the American battleships.
