USAS - Historian, Traveler, Planet Earth Advocate! The bridge, of course, has the best view on the ship, and is where the action happened when it was in service
Judah Davis laura telhiard smith USS Kidd 6/ I appreciate Judah Davis so much. He's a great traveler. This is really his thread with commentary from me as I've not yet seen this ship personally. Thanks to him and Martin Koenigsberg (MarTMar) (SteelyDab), I'd like to! More Judah photos from the Bridge and Main Deck... twitter.com/JudahBDavis/stโฆ

Very quiet but only about a third of normal stern power which made manoeuvring more of a challenge!

Trivia Time: What's the difference between the U.S. flag shown here & the one flown every day on KIDD's fantail (besides fringe)?
First correct answer wins bragging rights.

Robert MacLeod That's the naval term for the national flag flown from the ship, yes. But what's the difference between this flag and the ensign regularly flown aboard KIDD?
Robert MacLeod Great question! Some do period-correct, and some just fly the current ensign. It varies from museum ship to museum ship. ๐
What a difference a week makes.
