Somewhere I once saw a series of photos of the repair work done to the Wisconsin where is showed almost every stage of the work being done. The upper bow section of the ship was removed in 2 sections. The after section needed a bit of plating replacement. They also removed the damaged section in 2 pieces, the bottom of the forefoot was undamaged and was removed as a seperate piece. and then they showed the Kentucky bow piece being lowered into place. It was interesting to see the Wisconsin with her entire bow removed.
I think these were in the Tech Library at LBNSY which means it is probably been recycled long ago.
I wonder if Norfolk NSY still has the photos???
