BB-59
battleship
model
Battleship Massachusetts, known by her crew
as "Big Mamie," was assigned as flagship for a
covering force of warships supporting the invasion
of North Africa, "Operation Torch." On November 8,
1942, she engaged the French battleship Jean Bart
in a gun duel and fired the first American 16"
projectile of World War II. By the end of the day
she had fired more than 700 16" projectiles,
silencing the Jean Bart and contributing to
the sinking of five enemy ships.
On
August 9, 1945, during a bombardment of the
ironworks in Kamaishi, Honshu, Big Mamie fired the
war's last 16" shell. Over the course of the war,
she sank 5 enemy ships and shot down 39
aircrafts. She earned 11 battle stars for her World
War II service and never lost a man in combat!
