[South Dakota]

I never saw her but I still miss the USS South Dakota. BB 57.
There was no use for her except as a museum piece and we have plenty of those.
I still think that it should be the USS Pennsylvania at Pearl instead of the Missouri

I find it interesting that there are several of that class that are preserved as museums...the South Dakota had a far more interesting history than the USS Massachusetts, which I have had to opportunity to visit a few times.
