BB 62

After we saw the battleship from the duck tour, Becca wanted to tour it, so we did. We had to drive through Camden, New Jersey, which looked unappetizing and even the County building has no windows. After, I found out that Camden is one of the most dangerous towns in the country. Here is the New Jersey.
One the pier.
Posing in front of the big guns.
Enlisted mens quarters. These are cushy compared to the World War II era fittings when the ship carried twice as many hands as it did later.
Inside the gun turret.
Becca in the turret.
Looking through the periscope at the Ben Franklin Bridge.
Looking into another compartment in the turret.
Cruise missile launcher.
This is not a hall of mirrors.
The barber shop.
Becca in the brig.
The ship laundry.
Geedunk means candy and nuts on the ship, for some reason.
