Summary[edit]

Description The U.S. Navy training ship USS Electrician at Naval Operating Base Hampton Roads, in 1921, with a class of freshly graduated Navy electricians posing in front. In the early part of the 20th century, the U.S. Navy had to keep up with the rapidly changing field of wireless communications and electronics. To meet the demand, several electrican schools were established across the U.S. The school at NOB Hampton Roads built a 3/4-scale model of a Pennsylvania-class battleship out of wood, including all the bells and whistles of a real battleship. It was dismantled circa 1940.
