About This Design

The battleship New Jersey from above  Beverage Coa Coaster

The battleship New Jersey from above Beverage Coa Coaster

This is a picture of the battleship New Jersey taken by me, from a helicopter. It's a huge ship with enormous guns. This ship actually fired over my Coast Guard Patrol boat in Vietnamese waters in the South China Sea. I'm told the shells they fired over my patrol boat went 25 miles inland. USS New Jersey (BB-62) is an Iowa-class battleship, and was the second ship of the United States Navy to be named after the US state of New Jersey. She was often referred to fondly as "Big J". New Jersey earned more battle stars for combat actions than the other three completed Iowa-class battleships, and was the only US battleship providing gunfire support during the Vietnam War. During World War II, New Jersey shelled targets on Guam and Okinawa, and screened aircraft carriers conducting raids in the Marshall Islands. During the Korean War, she was involved in raids up and down the North Korean coast, after which she was decommissioned into the United States Navy reserve fleets, better known as the "mothball fleet". She was briefly reactivated in 1968 and sent to Vietnam to support US troops before returning to the mothball fleet in 1969. Reactivated once more in the 1980s as part of the 600-ship Navy program, New Jersey was modernised to carry missiles and recommissioned for service. In 1983, she participated in US operations during the Lebanese Civil War.

My coasters arrived and one was chipped. I got in touch with Zazzle and had no trouble getting a replacement. I was refreshed with how easy and it was and how customer-focused their service was. The colours are good. Just note these coasters are clay not furry.
