Naval art
prints of USS Nevada by leading naval artists.
USS Nevada was a dramatic
new design, There design gave them very long range and had very thick
deck armour with a highly centralized fire control. USS Nevada was built
by Fore River and was launched on the 11th July 1914, completed on the
11th June 1916, Near the end of 1917 a number of the secondary 5 - inch
guns were reduced to twelve. Along with her sister ship, when the US
entered the great war, they were stationed in Ireland and took part in
convoy protection. Between the wars, the USS Nevada received new
Turbines which were originally intended for the USS North Dakota, with
these new turbines her speed was increased to 20.2 knots during trials.
The Nevada was badly damaged during the Japanese raid on Pearl harbor
but she ran aground in shallow waters to save her sinking. she was
raised and temporarily repaired. she was taken to Puget sound Navy Yard
for refit and In may 1943 was in action at the Aleutians. and also
supported the Normandy Landings in June 1944 and again in the landings
in Southern France. She was transferred to the Pacific theatre where she
saw service in the Landings at Iwo Jima and Okinawa. During the Okinawa
landings she was hit by a Kamikaze which caused light damage. In July
and August 1945 she served in Japanese Home waters and eventually
decommissioned on the 30th October 1945. USS Nevada was used
during the atomic tests in 1946, although badly damaged she remained
afloat. She was used again as a target and few experimental tests,
eventually being sunk by a aerial torpedo on the 31st July 1948. |
| The Raid on Pearl Harbor, 7th December 1941 by Ivan Berryman The view across Battleship Row, viewed from above Ford Island as the USS Nevada gallantly makes her break for the open sea, coming under heavy attack from Japanese A6M2s from the carrier Hiryu. The Nevada was eventually too badly damaged to continue and was beached to avoid blocking the harbour entrance. In the immediate foreground, the lightly damaged USS Tennessee is trapped inboard of USS West Virginia which has sunk at her moorings, leaking burning oil and hampering the daring operations to pluck trapped crew members from her decks, while just visible to the right is the stern of the USS Maryland and the capsized Oklahoma.
