Commissioned April 9, 1941, the USS North Carolina was the first newly-constructed American battleship to enter service in World War II.  In the Pacific Theater, she took part in every major offensive and, with 15 battle stars, became the most decorated US battleship in World War II.  Join us as we clear the deck and document the action-filled story of the “Showboat.”
