Floatplanes and American battleships

Really?
I've been to Hackensack, and I never knew... [/i]

 

Pretty sure it was Hackensack, since on that day had lunch with two reporters of the "Bergen Record" and after a short ride they showed me the sub moored in the Passaic river.. In fact, here's a listing in case you come up this way..note the Holland in Paterson, which is not that far from Hackensack

Thanks - I'll keep those in mind when I pop over for my friend's wedding...

 

Actually l had to check, as these Northern NJ towns run pretty much into one another-and l thought it might have been docked at Bogota....not Bogota, Colombia, but Bogota NJ hahahaha!
P.S.: if you do come to this side of the pond look me up, and the first 20 beers are on me...............

 

Here are some of the pictures of BB USS New Jersey which l'd promised-more to come...

 

and more..

 

and more stilll...that's all for tonight gentlemen!

 

Corpcasselbury; here is the photo of the battleship l took to be the "USS USS California(?) -the envelope , for some reason was marked "California pictures", but l was informed it referred to photos of a parade held in SanDiego...The BB is, of course the "North Carolina"., as you pointed out.. :roll:

 

Yep, that's the "Showboat", as NORTH CAROLINA was nicknamed during WW2. She has been repainted and now sports a blue toned camouflage design. At least, she did when I visited her.

 

got some WW2 pics from a fellow in Poland.want to see them? :smok:

 

YES, we do!!!

 

Here you go..these photos came courtesy of J. Malinowski, in Poland.
