Nice looking ship. The smoke is awesome. I see that you are at the fun stage of building. The decks.....


The Wisconsin Had a collision with the USS Eaton near Norfolk during the Korean war, that damaged about 60 foot of her bow. During this time, four of the six Iowas( b 61-64) were completed and Two were still being built. They were the Uss Illinois(bb-65) and Uss Kentucky(bb-66). Since the USS Wisconsin needed parts immediately for the war, they were to pull them from the Unfinished ship Uss Kentucky since the last two Iowas were going to never be finished anways. They cut off about 65 foot of the bow from the Ky and the Wisconsin and installed the new section. The wisconsin becamse the longest Iowa class battleship, and was nicknamed the "WIS""KY". Wisconsin-Kentucky..
The Eaton was almost completely cut in two.
