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.

Wilmington's Military Cutoff Road-- Part 2


During the war it was a largely forested, undeveloped area until very recently. Even as late as the 1960s, the only major structure from Market Street to the intersection of Oleander Drive and Wrightsville Avenue, was the Buccaneer Gun Club, a firing range.

But now, there is plenty of development and more planned. And, of course, the construction and traffic woes that come along with it.

And, in Wilmington, the inevitable photo-enforced cameras.
