Postcard Collection: This says: Ocean Goings Ships At Dock, New Orleans,
La. In January 1965 the ocean going
ship, USS NEWPORT NEWS, that I arrived on was parked there. There was also a HMS (British) ship there. The purpose of the two ships were to
reenact The Battle of New Orleans, in the War of 1812. How did it come out? I have no idea. As soon as the ship docked, I hit docks running
and didn't return for 2 or 3 days just before the USS NEWPORT NEWS shipped off.
