USS Iowa Passing through the Golden Gate

The USS Iowa, commissioned in 1943 and the last of the US battleships, left the San Francisco Bay Area for its last time to its new destination in San Pedro, CA. On the eve of the 75th anniversary celebration of the Golden Gate Bridge, the majestic ship departed the San Francisco Bay under blue sky and escorted by fireboats and sailboats.
