About this event
Fire Power Tour
Battleship New Jersey
62 Battleship Place, Camden, NJ 08103
Thursday, July 31 at 10:30 am
WC members & non-members: $20
Bring your friends and family to explore this, the world's greatest battleship - USS New Jersey (BB-62). She is an Iowa-class battleship, often referred to fondly as "Big J" and has earned more battle stars for combat action than any others in her class. New Jersey was decommissioned for the last time in 1991 after having served a total of 21 years in the active fleet.
Our knowledgeable tour guides will take us through the Battleship’s awesome 16″ Gun Turrets and other weapons systems, the Admiral’s and Captain’s Cabins, Combat Engagement Center, Navigational Bridge, Wardroom, Forward Berthing, and much more! We will learn about the critical role the Battleship New Jersey played in World War II, Korea, Vietnam, and the Middle East, as well as understand why she was the most feared ship ever to stalk the seas.
There is public parking available and the battleship is accessible to public transportation from the Riverlink Ferry from Penn's Landing and NJ Transit's RiverLine.
Please note that we were mindful to keep the discounted registration fee accessible to ensure that it is more affordable for families to attend.
Also note that cancellations are accepted through July 24. In the event that you need to cancel prior to that date, a credit will be applied to your WC account for future use.
