Background: Kentucky is a Modified Iowa-class Battleship. She originally came from the Montana Class but was converted over to a Iowa-class since the US needed more fast Battleships. Though she was never finished being built she sat around the shipyard listening to other ships that came in for repairs, ammo, or modifications about the original Iowa Class ships. Though the one that interested her the most was her brother the USS Missouri. The Mighty Mo as he was called she learned why he earned the nickname. She listened as other ships and sailors talked about his deeds in the war such as sinking both the KMS Bismarck and IJN Yamato. Ships feared by others only to be sunken by him. She also learned that he literally sunk four island's along with ramming and sinking 52 enemy ships along with downing 394 enemy aircraft,only being hit once by one kamikaze. Later on she learned that the Japanese Prime Ministers surrendered on his ship. Later on she was forgotten about along with her two sisters the USS Illinois and USS Ohio after there drydocks collapsed from a storm. She along with her sister's continued listening on about there siblings soon learning about the USS Iowa,USS,New Jersey,and USS Wisconsin sinking, leaving Missouri the last Battleship to be sailing. Soon discovered by a sailor that was drunk the US Navy finished her ship along with her sister's converting them into Battle-Carriers 4 months after Missouri disappeared.
