Laundry Room aboard the USS North Carolina

The Battleship North Carolina
Battleship NORTH CAROLINA participated in every major naval offensive in the Pacific theater of operations during World War II, earning 15 battle stars. This authentically restored National Historic Landmark proudly serves as her State’s World War II Memorial to the 11,000+ North Carolinians who made the ultimate sacrifice.
Moored across from historic downtown Wilmington, the Battleship welcomes visitors daily. Plot your own course as you explore nine levels, climb inside gun turrets, marvel at early computers, and see where the crew ate, slept, and worked. Crew stories throughout the Ship introduce you to the 2,000 young men who called the Showboat home.
Encircling the Ship, the State Employees Credit Union (SECU) Walkway provides an opportunity to appreciate her majesty and power. Enjoy a picnic in Battleship Park or savor a meal in Wilmington. And take a piece of her home from the Battleship Steel Collection!

Thanks for posting videos of the North Carolina. They have have done a remarkable job of preserving her in pristine condition.

[@GrampsWizarding]

Absolutely my pleasure she is a great Battleship and the fact that it's over 80 years old and 60 of that as a museum is a testament to all involved in helping preserving her is Incredible...Thanks to all who help support our History

You can feel it through the phone

[@larryshaw5643]

That would be a huge job for all those that work in the laundry room

[@GrampsWizarding]

It's so true it's hard to believe but it's something we don't always think about even on today's vessels what it truly takes to make it run , they truly are working ships

[@theGEnericE]

Can't even imagine how hot that area would have been, but so important for the sanitary conditions of the ship.
