The USS Texas, that is.... :shock:
Staff arrived Saturday and immediately noticed something was wrong with the ship that fought in World Wars I and II and has served since 1948 as a memorial and museum to those who sacrificed their lives.

The vessel was sitting awkwardly in its slip. She was lower in the water and listing to the left.

Hopefully this will light a fire under TPWD to move forward with the dry dock plans. I don't know what the holdup is but it will be a major problem if the ship sinks where she is now.

Goes to show -- even INACTION produces a result -- though not necessarily one that is desired.

Time to get off the "keel" and get something DESIRED, effected!
