During WWII, America was humming as the country's manufacturing might was focused in on the war effort. One of the marvels of manufacturing during that time can seen in the construction of naval ships like the USS Alabama. In this episode, we're headed to Mobile, Alabama to explore the guns and armaments of a battleship that saw service in both the Atlantic and the Pacific and participated in some of the most iconic battles of the war. Much to learn on this one!
