Wife & I went over to Mobile Bay to see the U.S.S. Battleship Alabama, recomended viewing!
First picture is of the outside
2) Is a frontal view
3) Stats
4) 16in. shells (I wonder how far the wife could be blown out of that gun?)
5) Surgeon's table
6) View looking back towards the plane lift & catapult
7) View from the catapult back
8) Bomber the "Calamity Jane"
9) Inside the U.S.S. Drum Submarine
10) Outside the U.S.S. Drum
Here is a link to a Civil War Submarine that is on display there, camera didn't take picture of it

I was really amazed at how big it was & you could feel the sacrifice those men & women made that served on that ship.
I couldn't handle the bathroom situation, no doors & you crapped in a trough facing some other guy there was like 20 crappers in a row! Nope, I'm gonna dump out in the hall somewhere & blame it on the other guy!
The kitchen area was pretty neat & all of the different compartments there were for the doctors, dentists, blacksmiths, carpenters etc. etc.
It was so amazing how that ship was put together, I would recommend it to anyone that makes it around there to see it!
I hope you like taking the field trip with us, Chris & Kathy
