Another pen made from the teak wood decking off the battleship USS California. I covered the pen only with teak oil.
When Japanese carrier planes raided Pearl Harbor on 7 December 1941, she was badly damaged by torpedoes and bombs, slowly settling to the harbor bottom over the next few days. Her salvage, repair and modernization represented a major undertaking by the Pearl Harbor and Puget Sound Navy Yards and was not completed until January 1944.
After repairs, she saw action in WWII and Korea
