As Floodwaters Rise, a Moment of Reckoning for Battleship Texas | Houstonia
Sign The Petition – The Battleship Texas Foundation
Battleship Texas is sinking, again. She's had a long history of corrosion issues and leaks, but what's to be expected of a 105 year old ship? She was at Normandy, Okinawa and Iwo-Jimo to name a few.
They really need to quit messing around and build a dry dock for her, If I had the 50 million they'd probably need to do it, Id give it to them. But best I can do is sign their petition and link it here so maybe someone who hasn't seen it can sign.
At the end of the day I guess it's just 27,000 tons of iron, but it'll be sad to see it scraped. Always wanted to go on the tour of the engine room, but was too young at the time (had to be 14 to go down there). And now I never seem to have time for anything.
