The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Salvage of the USS Oklahoma

From the New Weapons Forum.

The salvage of the USS Oklahoma (BB-37) took place between 1942 and 1944.

The main battery turrets were still in place and that was thought that they were held in place by their weight.

All the other turrets fell off.
