USS Alabama memorial park

Post by Jonathan Warner » Thu Apr 10, 2025 4:13 pm

during our recent our recent US tour, we planned to drive from Shreveport Luisiana to Lakeland Florida, the aim was rather than spending a day flying on internal flight, we could actually see some of southern America in the process and after looking at our route, I noticed we passed by this museum.
well worth the $18 entrance fee, with a nice scattering of Aircraft including an F-14, B-52D and an A-12 amongst lots of others. alongside the aircraft stood a Submarine and of course, the USS Alabama Battleship. kept in amazing condition as a floating museum, you could easily loose an entire day just looking around it!

The YF-17 and A-12 are both an impressive part of the great collection.
