siege1863 Posted December 23, 2007 #1 Posted December 23, 2007 Just arrived. Photo is of the operating room on the USS MISSISSIPPI (BB-23), which dates from 1908 to 1914.
Championhilz Posted December 23, 2007 #2 Posted December 23, 2007 Great photo Mike! I love the ones that really give a feel for what life was like on board those old battlewagons.
siege1863 Posted December 23, 2007 Author #3 Posted December 23, 2007 When you see how primitive the operating room is, I would not want to be treated for anything worse than a splinter! There is also something about it that reminds me of the Titanic.
