Great catch Ben
If you look at about 32 minutes (seems as if the clock is backward) and to the port side you will see the SS United States docked at pier 82.

Probably the longest vid you've posted, Ben (not a complaint).
"New Jersey earned more battle stars for combat actions than the other three completed Iowa-class battleships, and was the only US battleship used to provide gunfire support during the Vietnam War."

Additonally: Most decorated battleship in the history of the US Navy.

I really appreciate all the work and money put into saving and refurbishing these historic ships. When I board one like the New Jersey (which I plan to do), I think it's worth it.

You were right Ben---now that they are done the USS United States comes into view at about 1:53 on the port side.
