Description
English: Cape Hatteras, N.C. (Jul. 6, 2002) -- Photographer’s Mate 1st Class Chadwick Vann shoots video of the inside of USS Monitor's turret after a section of armor belt was removed to facilitate lifting the turret, during the raising of the ship. Since its designation as our nation's first marine sanctuary in 1975, the Monitor has been the subject of intense investigation. The turret was the first revolving gun of its kind and will eventually be on public display in the Mariners’ Museum in Newport News, Va. The famed warship sank 240 feet to the ocean floor during a heavy storm off Cape Hatteras on Dec. 31, 1862. Four officers and 12 men were lost. U.S. Navy photo by Chief Photographer’s Mate Eric J. Tilford. (RELEASED).
