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, N.C. Gets Its New Signs: 'First WW II Heritage City'

From WWAY 3 ABC, Wilmington, N.C.  "Wilmington adds 'First WW II Heritage City' to welcome signs" by Peyton Furtado.

You might just notice a change in those welcome to Wilmington signs around town.  A  new plaque has been added saying "America's 1st WW II Heritage City."

Wilmington was given this honor last September largely through the efforts of Wilbur D. Jones.

Of course, in my humble opinion, Wilmington should also add the words "Photo Enforced Stop Light City of the U.S."  They sure have a lot of them.  Probably more than even Chicago.
