USS New Jersey (Bb-62): From World War II, Korea, and Vietnam to Museum ShipPreserved today as a museum in her namesake state, the battleship USS New Jersey (BB 62) saw combat during WWII and the Korean War and was the only battleship of any nation to see service during the Vietnam War. Following service in Vietnam, New Jersey was again retired to the reserve fleet; there she languished from 1969 to 1982, when the Reagan administration reactivated and modernized the New Jersey and her three Iowa class sisters Iowa, Missouri,

Preserved today as a museum in her namesake state, the battleship USS New Jersey (BB-62) saw combat during WWII and the Korean War and was the only battleship of any nation to see service during the Vietnam War. Following service in Vietnam, New Jersey was again retired to the reserve fleet; there she languished from 1969 to 1982, when the Reagan administration reactivated and modernized the New Jersey and her three Iowa-class sisters--Iowa, Missouri, and Wisconsin--and returned the massive ships to service. New Jersey was again decommissioned and returned to the reserve fleet in 1991. In a move that remains controversial even now, in 1999 the New Jersey was declared surplus by the Navy. The custody of the ship was then transferred to the Home Port Alliance organization in Camden, New Jersey, who currently maintains the battleship as a memorial and museum. This book, through more than 225 photos, documents the history from her construction through combat during each of her wars, and her preservation today. Part of the Legends of Warfare series.

I absolutely love this throw blanket! From the moment I took it out of the package, I could tell how soft and well-made it was. It’s incredibly cozy without being too heavy, making it perfect for relaxing on the couch, watching TV, or adding an extra layer of warmth to the bed. The material feels high quality and has held up really well after washing—no shedding or fading. It keeps me warm without overheating, which is exactly what I was looking for. I also love how it adds a nice touch to my daughter’s room. The color is beautiful and looks exactly like the pictures, making it both functional and decorative. Overall, this throw blanket is a great value for the price. Comfortable, stylish, and durable—I would definitely recommend it and plan to buy more!

Incredibly Soft and Cozy
Size: Throw (50"W x 60"L), Color: Sage Green, Size: Throw (50"W x 60"L), Color: Sage Green
This blanket is unbelievably soft and fluffy — one of the softest throws I’ve bought from Amazon. It feels very cozy and keeps you surprisingly warm without being overly heavy. Perfect for curling up on the couch or adding extra comfort to a bed. My only small issue was the color. The “sage green” looked much more like a cream or very light neutral in person, so I’m not sure if I received the wrong color. I ended up keeping it anyway because the softness and quality were so good.
