Battleship Gunfire Simulation
A light show simulates USS Alabama and HMS Anson engaging the German battleship Tirpitz and battlecruiser Scharnhorst.
Aboard the Battleship Alabama (BB 60). At Battleship Memorial Park, near Mobile, Alabama, I visited the Battleship Alabama (BB 60), a South Dakota-class battleship, now a museum ship. This battleship was launched and commissioned in 1942 and served in World War II in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters. She has been at this location as a museum ship since 1964. The park includes many other historical exhibits.
