USS Texas

USS Texas
From a photo I saw in some Naval Archives. Do not remember which one. One of the first battleships after the conversion from partial steam and sail to full steam. The expression became common from its use During the civil war. In 1864, Rear Admiral David G. Farragut (first 4 star Admiral) used this expression in the battle of Mobile Bay to get his Navy advance quickly. Today this expression can be used while you work on any project. So full steam ahead! Lets paint 16" x 20" acrylic on canvas
