Album Info:
"Through much salvage work and temporary repairs, she was able to steam to the US west coast in April of 1942 where she spent the rest of the year receiving permanent repairs and more powerful anti-air weaponry. The Nevada resumed duty and was assigned combat duty during the Attu landings in May 1943. She also took part in the Normandy and Southern France invasions. In the Pacific, she assisted in the invasions of Iwo Jima and Okinawa. With the end of the war, Nevada was assigned as a target for the atomic bomb tests in 1946 at Bikini Atoll, which left her damaged and radioactive. She was then sunk near the Hawaiian Islands."
