EDITORS COMMENTS
This sepia-toned photograph captures a significant piece of history during World War I. The image showcases the heavily weighted keel of the U. S. S. Oklahoma battleship, taken around 1918. As one of America's formidable dreadnoughts, this early naval vessel played a crucial role in warfare during that time. The USS Oklahoma was an emblematic symbol of American strength and determination amidst the chaos and destruction of war. Its massive hull and imposing structure were a testament to the nation's commitment to protect its interests and allies. In this print, we see the intricate details of the battleship's keel, which served as its backbone. This vital component ensured stability and resilience while navigating treacherous waters and engaging in combat. The photograph evokes a sense of awe at both the engineering marvel that is the USS Oklahoma battleship and the bravery exhibited by those who manned it during World War I. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared history, honoring those who fought valiantly for their country's cause. As we reflect on this historical artifact captured over a century ago, let us remember not only its significance but also pay tribute to all those who have sacrificed their lives in service to their nations throughout history.
