The Tennessee class was part of the standard series of twelve battleships built in the 1910s and 1920s, and were developments of the preceding New Mexico class. They were armed with a battery of twelve 14-inch (356 mm) guns in four three-gun turrets. Tennessee served in the Pacific Fleet for duration of her peacetime career. She spent the 1920s and 1930s participating in routine fleet training exercises, including the annual Fleet Problems, and cruises around the Americas and further abroad, such as a goodwill visit to Australia and New Zealand in 1925." 🚢 Further reading 🚢 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Tennessee_(BB-43) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennessee-class_battleship 🟢Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsmGCJdCZeKxrbqs_l4YCQA/join 🟢Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/Darknessthecurse 🟣Discord - https://discord.com/invite/KEX5eeRcxF 🔴Cameo - https://www.cameo.com/darknessthecurse 🔵Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/unsupportedbrowser 🟢Donations - https://streamlabs.com/edgerabbit/tip 🔴Reddit - https://www.reddit.com/r/HistoryintheDark/ 🔴Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@historyinthedark 🟣Instagram - https://www.facebook.com/unsupportedbrowser 🔵Twitter - http://www.twitter.com/DarktheCurse 🟣Merch - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsmGCJdCZeKxrbqs_l4YCQA/store 🟣Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/edgerabbit Other channels: 🟢Prehistory in the Dark: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsbkaWQ4rUKMedsE0VCdzrg 🟣Gaming and Fanfic Readings: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCig-6ZTjigUQBIi3O4XSdlw 🟣History Stuff: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsmGCJdCZeKxrbqs_l4YCQA 👔Merch: https://streamlabs.com/edgerabbit/p/merch --- I WRITE BOOKS!
