I have been on the Missouri, when it visited Sydney Harbor Australia in the mid 1980's
I also had some fights with the sailors from one of it's escort ships, think it was a destroyer or frigate accompanying the Missouri. Remember a huge MP/SP Sargent coming in and cleaning them all out of the pub. Lucky, things were getting a little rough!
No hard feelings though, it was all about them stealing our gal's.
This incredible machine hurled a car sized shell 20km for a demonstration then fired all guns port side and you could see that the stabilizers kept it upright while the whole ship moved at least 10 meters across the path of it's wake...WOW!!!
