Background

About the ship

During World War I, New York-class battleship USS Texas took part in patrol and convoy missions in the Atlantic. During World War II, the battleship escorted convoys across the Atlantic, took part in the landings of Allied forces in North Africa and Normandy, and supported landing forces in the battles for Iwo Jima and Okinawa. After her service in the Navy concluded, Texas became a museum ship in Houston, Texas, and then became the first battleship to receive the status of being a National Historic Landmark of the United States.
