Couldn't say it better myself (about the 1:45 point). On the day in 1989 that the IOWA had her turret explosion - the USS PLATTE (AO-186) and USS TRIPP (FF-1075) decided to play kiss and tell - that is why most don't know of this unbelievable UNREP attempt.
No way to make an approach boys.
One more thing; weren't the lines of the PLATTE and her sisters beautiful. Seriously, for an AO and all, an attractive ship.
