Famous WW2 Quote
"Since peace is now beyond hope, we can but fight to the end."Chiang Kaishek, 31 Jul 1937

By the time USS TEXAS came along the 'ram' was np longer considered a weapon. This type of bow was called a 'milatery bow'
The USS NEW MEXICO and HMS HOOD were the first to dispense with them.
