Posted on June 28, 2020July 19, 2020 by Erik Chipchase USS Nevada (BB-36) as she appeared in 1924. Even this early in her career, she already differed from her original configuration. The foremost 5” casemate guns have been removed and replaced with portholes due to the wetness and unworkability of the gun positions, while her navigating bridge has been enclosed and expanded. The range clock on her foremast and the hash marks on Turrets II and III were added ca. 1919 after experience with the Grand Fleet was integrated into US Navy doctrine.
