BATTLESHIP USS ALABAMA
Mobile, Alabama
This OS2U "Kingfisher" seaplane is the only
assembled one on display in the United
States. During World War II three of these
planes were assigned to the Alabama for scouting
and observation missions. This plane, a gift from
the Mexican Navy, was restored by Brookley AFB
mechanics during their off-duty hours.
