Battleships steaming in column off the California coast during the 1920s. The three leading ships are (in no particular order) USS Colorado (BB-45), USS Maryland (BB-46), and USS West Virginia (BB-48), followed by USS Tennessee (BB-43) and three older battleships.

"We've got the torpedo damage temporarily shored up, the fires out and soon will have the ship back on an even keel. But I would suggest, sir, that if you have to take any more torpedoes, you take 'em on the starboard side." Pops Healy, DCA USS Lexington.
