A Little Bosphorus irony
http://www.navsource.org/archives/01/016330c.jpgThe USS Missouri returning the remains of the Turkish Ambaasadour meets the Turkish battle cruiser Yavuz, formerly the SMS Goeben in the Bosphorus, exchanging 19 gun salutes. Ironically the Ship that precipitated the WWI war at sea meeting the Ship where WWII ended, if you will. The Goeben aka Yavuz was the longest serving Dreadnought(Moltke class Battlecruiser) in history, 1911 until 1950, until sold for scrap in 1973http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._-_cropped.jpg
