Any Desert Storm vets who experienced this?

The “moving sideways” claim isn’t supported by facts - even though various pictures make it *seem* like such movement is real.

Think about it this way - IF the firing of the 16 inchers was strong enough to move the ship sideways, the forces involved would have destroyed the ship.

My father was on the USS Massachusetts on a shakedown cruise
When a starboard broadside fired moving the ship 200 yards sideways.
