Going east on I-10 across Mobile Bay in Alabama, you pass right by Battleship Memorial Park. Stop. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200.  Exit now and visit the Battleship USS Alabama.

This is a great place for the entire family. It’s full of history with lots to see, both on and off the ship. There is a hanger with WWII airplanes and the USS Drum submarine. On the grounds you will also see tanks, vehicles, anti-aircraft guns and more. Find out more at http://www.ussalabama.com/.

This gun (or cannon) points back to the city of Mobile.
