John Hornung was with us for part of the Christmas break. When we took him back home, we were able to tour the USS North Carolina. It was a gorgeous day, and amazing to see how those sailors lived. The ship has at least nine levels, so we got some good exercise, but nothing like the sailors did.
Some of the guns were still in “working” order, so the boys had a great time acting as though they were really using them. They found out that virtual reality or pushing a button attached to hydraulics is more to their generation’s liking.
