Military History
Holding the steel that shaped history: a piece of the USS Texas
These limited-edition silhouettes are cut straight from structural steel salvaged from the USS Texas (BB-35) during her dry dock restoration. Each one is mounted on a wood base engraved with her WWII campaigns — North Africa, Normandy, Southern France, Iwo Jima, and Okinawa — and comes with a gold-seal Certificate of Authenticity from the Battleship Texas Foundation.
As a veteran, this isn't just a display piece. It's a tangible connection to the grit and sacrifice behind the uniform. The Mighty T is the only surviving dreadnought to fight in both World Wars, and she stood watch through some of humanity's hardest chapters. Having a piece of her hull on the shelf is a personal nod to that history, to the late watches, and to the bonds that only the people who served really understand.
