Download or read book USS North Carolina BB 55 written by David Doyle and published by Schiffer Military History. This book was released on 2018 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As lead ship of America's first "fast battleship" class, and the US Navy's newest battleship when America entered WWII, the construction of the USS North Carolina was not only a source of encouragement for a depression-wrought nation, but was also a source of pride among a fleet of aging battleships. Earning fifteen Battle Stars, the North Carolina is America's most-decorated battleship, having participated in most of the major campaigns in the Pacific during WWII. This volume documents not only the construction and wartime exploits of this historic vessel, but thoroughly explores the restored vessel, providing a great resource for the armchair historian, a keepsake for those who visit the museum ship, and a superb resource for the detailed model builder. Carefully researched photos, many of which have never before been published, are reproduced in remarkable clarity and put the reader on and beneath the decks of this historic warship. Part of the Legends of Warfare series.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACTHULL PRESERVATION: PRESERVATION METHODS AND MANAGEMENT OF THE BATTLESHIP NORTH CAROLINA MEMORIAL, WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINAByJoshua VestalOctober 2020Director: Dr. Nathan RichardsPROGRAM IN MARITIME STUDIES, DEPARTMENT OF HISTORYThe USS North Carolina (BB-55), was the most decorated battleship in the United States Navy during World War II. During its service, the USS North Carolina participated in every major action in the Pacific receiving fifteen battle stars. The ship was decommissioned in 1947 after only six years of service. It was then stricken from the Naval Vessel register in 1960 and was set to be sold for scrap. However, the residents of North Carolina, including thousands of school children, saved the ship from being scrapped and raised enough money to have it towed down the Cape Fear River to Wilmington, NC. It now serves as a memorial to the veterans of North Carolina who served in World War II.After sitting in its berth for decades, the ship began to experience hull deterioration. A project to repair the worst section of the hull (the starboard bow) finally took place in 2011. Now, several other sections need repair. Today, caretakers of USS North Carolina have recently finished installing a permanent cofferdam around the vessel. Repairs to several sections of the ship's hull are currently underway.Utilizing archaeological and cultural resource management approaches, this thesis will discuss the preservation issues that steel-hulled battleship museums face, focusing on the USS North Carolina, as well as the methods for restoring and maintaining the hulls of these ships. It will also analyze methods used to solve these preservation issues, which will allow for better preparation when dealing with similar issues that may arise in more recently converted battleship museums. This thesis will also seek to understand the relationship that battleship museums play in preserving cultural heritage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume details the design, construction, and operation of the first six of the ten US fast battleships, two of the North Carolina class and four of the South Dakota class. These six battleships were all authorized in 1936 and were the first vessels built in the US since 1923. Consequently, these ships benefitted from enormous technological leaps, with improvements in ship design, power, armor, armament and the single most important improvement the use of radar guided fire control helping to change the course of the war in the Pacific. Packed with first-hand accounts, battle reports, and specially created artwork this book tells the story of these war-winning vessels.
