The Battleship North Carolina was a legendary vessel in the nation's fleet when it was scheduled to be torn apart for scrap metal in 1958.
Despite its storied history of active service and a lineage that dates back to 1820, the Showboat, as it was called, was going to be torn apart until the state for which it is named rallied to save it and preserve its history.
On this week's episode, we explore that history, from the ship's construction and active service, to the day it was torpedoed and the historic campaign that gave it a second life.
Joining the discussion is Kim Sincox, museum service director for the Battleship North Carolina.
The Battleship North Carolina is open 365 days a year. Visit BattleshipNC.com for more information on events onboard the ship.
Cape Fear Unearthed is written, edited and hosted by Hunter Ingram. Additional editing by Adam Fish.
Season three is sponsored by Northchase Family Dentistry and Tidewater Heating & Air Conditioning.
