  1. And no lead was dropped from those guns, they only know how to deliver hot steel on target. A steel container full of boom.

  2. Nah, that was pure 20th century badassery. Battleships were ships of the line, designed to take tough punishment while administering that same punishment upon others. The dreadnought battleships were the epitome of their era, but became obsolete once we reached the point where we could darken sunny skies with airplanes from carriers. But, the battleships hold one honor that's yet to be replicated with more modern warships, for a battleship owns the distinction of sinking an entire island. But, even the full treatment by multiple destroyers and battleships couldn't clear out fortified caves on Okinawa. That required ground forces and a hell of a lot of blood.
