Come along as we tour the battleship USS Massachusetts at Battleship Cove in Fall River.  The Massachusetts was known as "Big Mamie" to her crewmembers during World War II. Initially assigned to duty in the Atlantic Fleet, and later transferred to the Pacific, the vessel was decommissioned in 1947.  It was later towed to Fall River and opened as a museum in 1965.
