My dad was a vet and the man who was in charge of the battleship was a client. He gave us kids the grand tour deep into the bowels of the ship.
The problem is (almost) nobody visits the ship at the SJM, so revenues and state support is lacking. Making it a museum ship at Pelican Island which already has a submarine and Destroyer Escort would increase its visibility dramatically.
