Engagement Between HMS Mediator and Three French And Two American Ships, By Montague Dawson (c) Christie's

USS Kidd (DD-661), a Fletcher-class destroyer, was the first ship of the United States Navy to be named after Rear Admiral Isaac C. Kidd, who died on the bridge of his flagship USS Arizona during the 1941 Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Admiral Kidd was the first US flag officer to die during World War II, and the first American admiral ever to be killed in action. A National Historic Landmark, she is now a museum ship, berthed on the Mississippi River in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

That's a lot of talk about the ship's guns but did USS Texas ever get an ice cream machine?

No one ever asks about that. Yes, during World War II she had a soda fountain.

It was located on the 2nd deck and you could get both soda and ice cream there.

Thanks for the ask.
