USS Kidd in Baton Rouge

hairy_appleJul 21, 2010 10:33pm
In 2005 I was in New Orleans doing relief work after Katrina. We had a day off and were actaully staying in Baton Rouge, so we went to go find something to do with our day off. I was lucky enough to talk the group into touring the USS Kidd. Built in 1943 she saw service through all the major battles in the PTO. I figured I'd share the photos I took during our trip.
