Benjamin Russell High School NJROTC were able to spend the night on the USS Alabama in Mobile recently.

Led by Commander John Walker, the NJROTC cadets learned about a “battlewagon” in World War II. The cadets also explored the submarine USS DRUM, which ranked eighth among all U.S. Navy subs for the amount of enemy shipping tonnage she sank.
