For anyone along the Northeastern corridor, the USS New Jersey in Camden is another well-preserved Iowa class museum ship.


The Battleship New Jersey has a good youtube channel where the head curator walks you through some things.

They also sell broken parts of the ship that they fix up as souvenirs, like the entire deck's worth of wooden planking, and for $1000 you can take a tour where the mildly charismatic head curator takes you into the smallest and hardest to reach parts of the ship!

Or fire a 5 inch gun, you know, if that's more your speed.

Depends on what the target is.


For $1k it's just a blank round.

But if you donate $1M, you're allowed to shoot the USS New Jersey's curator Jordan with an HE shell from the 16" guns.


If you watch the channel you'd know it was HC - high capacity.
