USS Texas (BB-35)

So it's a good nostalgia throwback to, well, that's pretty much what the costs of things were like.

Gasoline says $2 a gallon, and technically I think it was $1 a gallon, but, but I did live in Texas, so yeah, I give that kind of a up and down.

As far as money, you know, I don't have many complaints about it because it actually hits the mark based on what was happening at the time.

Eh, nothing ridiculous, no ladders that are blown out of proportion or giving them away for free.

"In case I come down that hallway and find 105 millimeter howitzer, 'cause, you know, I might need that." Naval gunnery, and not even as part of, like, the space fleet c- or space travel, you know, whatever.

Oh, no, this is the wet navy.

In case you're what? In the turret of the USS Texas and need to level those 16-inch guns at somebody? Come on.

Those are just two.

I'm pretty sure they did.

The difficulties of them, that's on the USS Texas of getting that, because it just sat essentially without enough money to do the proper maintenance for so long.

Her

entire budget was spent just pumping the hole out.

We've done a lot of, I wonder if we could do one of these on the Texas somehow.

Interesting, because we certainly have enjoyed working.

We appreciate working with the USS Texas Foundation.

Good people.
