"THE ULTIMATE WARSHIP"
We, of the USS WISCONSIN ASSOCIATION, are proud to have served aboard this mighty Battleship.
The purpose of the Association, as stated in its by-laws, is "to foster and strengthen the fraternal, civic and patriotic bonds among former shipmates who have served in USS WISCONSIN, and their families, and to provide mutual aid to benefit to its membership. . . .
On March 10, 1998, the President of the USS WISCONSIN ASSOCIATION commissioned this site as www.usswisconsin.org . Hopefully this web-site will enlighten all people world-wide to the awesome power and strength of all our Battleships.
We hope that this site will attract all former crew members to the USS WISCONSIN ASSOCIATION.
Since April 1944, when the USS WISCONSIN was first commissioned, she has served her country as a most formidable warship. Whether active or inactive, she was always on the ready, waiting to be called. Her military life, although short, was effectual gaining for her an outstanding list of accomplishments and a proud heritage. She served gallantly in World War II, Korea and the Gulf War.
USS WISCONSIN is berth at, Nauticus The National Maritime Center, Norfolk Virginia. Our association is thrilled with her permanent home. Presently the public will only be allowed to walk her main decks, and three decks above. They will be able to get a close-up view of her massive 16" guns. At the present time, below decks areas will be off limits to the general public. Eventually she will become a floating museum and have internal tours.
Join our Association and enjoy the camaraderie along with your former shipmates. Full membership in our Association is open to all former crew members. Associate membership is available to family members and battleship enthusiasts. It's fun, it's exciting and you get to meet your old shipmates at our biennial reunions.
