USS Alabama (BB-60)
USS ''Alabama'' (BB-60), a battleship, was the sixth ship of the United States Navy named after the US state of Alabama. ''Alabama'' was commissioned in 1942 and served in World War II in the Atlantic and Pacific theaters. She was retired in 1962. In 1964, ''Alabama'' was taken to Mobile Bay and opened as a museum ship the following year. The ship was added to the National Historic Landmark registry in 1986.
==Construction and commissioning==
''Alabama'' was laid down on 1 February 1940 by the Norfolk Navy Yard, launched on 16 February 1942, and sponsored by Henrietta McCormick Hill, wife of J. Lister Hill, the senior Senator from Alabama. Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox, spoke at the launching ceremony: "As ''Alabama'' slides down the ways today, she carries with her a great name and a great tradition. We cannot doubt that before many months have passed she will have had her first taste of battle. The Navy welcomes her as a new queen among her peers. In the future, as in the past, may the name ''Alabama'' ever stand for fighting spirit and devotion to a cause." ''Alabama'' was commissioned on 16 August 1942, with Captain George B. Wilson in command.
