The engineering plant, with
eight boilers and four geared
turbines producing 212,000
horsepower, was converted to
bum Navy distillate fuel. It’s
cleaner burning and more
efficient than the black oil
previously used by the dread-
naught.
The Iowa-class battleship
was originally commissioned
at the Philadelphia Naval Ship-
yard in May of 1943 and spent
the next two years shelling
Japanese-held islands in the
western Pacific with her
16-inch guns and operating
with fast carrier task forces.
The 887-foot warship also
served as flagship for two of
World War Il’s most famous
admirals - Raymond A.
Spruance and William F.
(Bull) Halsey.
Mothballed for the first time
in 1948, the ship was re-
commissioned in 1950 for
duty in the Korean conflict.
The dreadnaught was refur-
bished and readied for duty in
Vietnam in 1968, and again
returned to the reserve fleet
in late 1969. She is updated
and reactivated as part of the
Navy’s fleet rebuilding pro-
gram.

Forty years after her original
commissioning, the battleship
New Jersey has again been re-
called to duty - her fourth
tour with the active fleet.
She has undergone extensive
modernization with installa-
tion of state-of-the-art weap-
ons systems during her most
recent year-and-a-half refur-
bishing.
The battleship is rearmed
with 32 Tomahawk and 16
Harpoon cruise missiles, plus
the new Vulcan-Phalanx anti-
aircraft and missile defense
system.
She retains her 16-inch
turrets - nine guns in all.
Using a 2,700-pound shell,
one round from one of her
potent 16-inch guns is equiva-
lent to hurling a Volkswagen
23 miles.
Updated were her communi-
cations and electronic counter-
measures systems. And, with
remodernization, the ship can
