Overview
USS California, the second Tennessee-class battleship, was laid down in 1916 and commissioned in August 1921. Throughout her peacetime career, the ship was the flagship of the US Pacific Fleet. In 1941, the battleship sank after being damaged by torpedoes and bombs. A year later, the ship was raised and modernized, after which she returned to service and participated in combat operations in the Pacific, including the Mariana Islands and Palau campaign, as well as the Philippine operation and the Okinawa landing.
