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.

Army Day Victory Parade in Roanoke in 1942
From the April 3, 2017, Roanoke (Va,) Times "Looking Back."
1942, 75 Years Ago.
"There was seriousness in downtown Roanoke last night as the Army Day Victory Parade 'with bands playing and colors flying, moved through the streets, serving notice that the city is rapidly girding itself for war on the homefront.'"
