The story of the USS New Orleans mirrors the resilience of the city whose name she carried. Join Curator and Restoration Manager Cory Graff for a look at the legendary cruiser that served across the Pacific war, surviving devastating damage and returning to the fight when many believed her story had ended. Through the lens of the Museum’s special exhibit Come Back Fighting, explore how the New Orleans became a powerful symbol of endurance, determination, and the spirit to persevere.
