The USS Iowa is called the Battleship of Presidents because no other battleship in our nation's
history has been host to more U.S. Presidents than the Iowa. Now the former crewmembers of the USS Topeka will board her for their official Alpha
Self-Guided tour. In each of the main viewing areas there will be a docent to help with information and questions, Each USS Topeka visitor
will receive a box lunch which we will be able to enjoy in the Crews Mess area. There is no other food available on the ship. The battleship
is not currently ADA accessible, so no wheelchairs are allowed. Small walkers and canes are okay if used with care. This tour will require a lot of
walking, and we are advised to be sure everyone wears walking shoes as we enjoy the history of this battleship through World War II, Korea,
and her re-commissioning and modernization in the 1980's. A glorious trip to a proud and beautiful lady, BB-61.
