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.

From the June 16, 2018, WWAY Wilmington, N.C. Justin McKee.

On Saturday, June 16, it was family day at the battleship USS North Carolina in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Along with activities for the kids, there were VIP tours offered with the proceeds going to restoration and education projects.

Food was provided by Trolley Stop Hot Dogs.

Tim Casserly of the NOAA National Marine Sanctuary gave lectures on sunken Herman U-boats off the North Carolina coast.

A free World War II submarine film was shown in the evening.
