Glad Texas was saved but I wish a lot more of the pre-ww2 battleships were saved as well

Yes, I could be wrong, but I think ‘Texas’ is the last WWI era BB. The rest were scrapped or even nuked; (’Arkansas’ and ‘Nevada’). There are a few from the ‘30s existing as museums. To me one of the worst was scrapping CV-6 Enterprise, almost the last pre-war CV.
