This is a pic of my grandparents, unfortunately both are gone now, and my mother doesnt recall anything about this
pic. We think it was made in the late 70s on a trip to see my aunt in Pensacola, Fl. The only museum battleship we
could find near there is the Alabama in Mobile, Al. In comparing current pics of the Alabama, it could very well
be it, but the guns are not positioned the same now as in the pic. The Corsair is also not shown in any online pics
or the website. The story goes it was the ship my gramps left on and the came back on from WW2, but he did not
serve on it. He was an Army medic. My question is, by chance, would anyone have visited the Alabama back in the
70s, early 80s maybe am=nd can confirm this is the Alabama?
