Re: USS IOWA
Awsome photos.They are a wee bit bigger than our navys ships.Our navy uses inflatable rafts,4 men per raft,3 to shoot and one to keep blowing the raft up.
The halftrack and the nebelwerfer photos are awsome.The three front firing guns would scare the pants off any enermy apart from the air.It is great you can do those battleships up.Unfortunatly everything comes down to money and a lot of great stuff would simply get chopped up for scrap.
In new zealand we had big guns set up on high points around the citys keeping a eye out for the japanese entering new zealand.The guns were to protect us from the japanese and after the war the guns were chopped up for scrap.Ironically it was the japanese who brought them for scrap.So the japanese brought our only defense against them.
The guns were huge and hadn't even been fired.

Re: USS IOWA
Yea this was a great trip to visit the Iowa. I Plan to return before it leaves Richmond to see the progress on the restoration.
