Despite the long service of USS Texas by March 21st, 1945, she wasn’t done yet. She had seen action from the Allied invasion of North Africa to Normandy, southern France, and the landings at Iwo Jima. Now, she faced one of the most dangerous operations of the war: the assault on Okinawa. Join The History Guy for another snippet of forgotten history and be sure to subscribe for more.
