… I’ve been fortunate to visit [the Imperial War Museum] twice (along with the Air museum in Duxford) and for anyone interested in military history, it’s well worth the visit–IMHO

I visited it in late 1985, found it fascinating, and would love to go back someday.

In the beginning of World War II the British Royal Navy was the strongest navy in the world, with naval bases across the globe. Its fleet counted 15 battleships, 7 aircraft carriers, 66 cruisers, 164 destroyers and 66 submarines. The Royal Navy fought in every theatre in the Atlantic, Mediterranean, and the Pacific oceans.

By the end of the war, however, the United States Navy was the largest navy the world had ever seen.

This thread may be of interest: When was the U.S. Navy at its most powerful?

President Theodore Roosevelt spoke at the 1906 dedication of the current Pennsylvania State Capitol building in Harrisburg.
