Living History
lAboard
the Texas we have several living history events each year which
includes "Battle station 1944". During this event several types of
weapons are on display and demonstrations are given as well.
"Remember the USS Maine" is another living history event held in February. The event features an 1898 army camp showing both the uniforms and equipment used during that time. A memorial ceremony is held aboard the Texas for the USS Maine.

lWe have a 20 MM anti-aircraft gun mounted on a trailer that is taken to
different events each year, “Wings over Houston” is one of them. This
gun is set-up for the public to see and they can operate it. Well, that is
short of firing it.
