Only In Texas
The Battleship Texas is the only surviving battleship to have
fought in both world wars. She is maintained as a monument
to the American sailors who fought through two world wars in
defense of liberty.
At the time she was commissioned in 1914, Texas was lauded
as the most powerful weapon in the world. Her 14-inch guns
could dominate any other ship afloat.
