67k | The identity of this ship is not certain, but is
firmly believed to be New Hampshire (BB-25) taken in the early 20's just prior
to being broken up for scrap under the terms of the Naval Treaties. Note that her secondary broadside guns have all been removed and that her main fore turret has been marked with bearing marks by which the ships ahead and behind in the battle line could determine on which relative bearing the main battery was training. |
