I can tell you one thing whatever show this guy produces or is part of it’s gonna be a good show he is very entertaining and Knows what he is talking about
Another great video Tom. I hope to visit the 08 level on my next Firepower tour with Dr. John Scholes in the spring. Thanks to all Battleship Cove staff and volunteers for your ongoing restoration work on " Big Mamie ".
It would really be nice to see Massachusetts do the same thing to the battleship Massachusetts the North Carolina did the North Carolina and that's instead of painting her solid and peace time Gray put her back to the camouflage color that she was in 45. And instead of letting her decks bleach out anymore in the natural wood color painting them to see blue that they once were during the war. Just think I'd make her look a little bit more special than just everything up there is peacetime Gray I can understand it with the Kennedy because she's representing herself as she appeared in the late '60s the '70s. But the Massachusetts is still pretty much as she was during world war II only slight changes from things that have been removed it'd be nice to see her being in wartime colors from 45 in the measure 22 scheme I think it would really make her stand out.
Seems to me like the 0-8 level would be better to conn the ship for non-combat operations for a couple of reason, vision and crew comfort. I realize the helmsman doesn't steer the ship but responds to orders and therefore doesn't need to see where the ship is going. That being said the officer(s) in charge would have much better situational awareness up there. I'm an air force guy so my knowledge of operating a ship is zero.
I visited three times during this past year and discovered something new each time!
Taking a trip to battleship cove this summer with my nephew so I’m looking up vids about this ship before I get to walk on it. Ty for your vid

I used to live not far from battleship cove and visitsd the Massachusetts many times.
Y'all gotta do more videos of the history and to show us the interior of the Hiddensee ship

That was very interesting. Many different ways to control the ship pretty amazing. Enjoy your videos have a happy Thanksgiving.

Any plans to restore flag plot and the flag bridge? When originally built, her bridge was completely open!
