@Griffinsheep You gotta be right! It's indeed Öland!
After USS White Sands was decommissioned in 1974, it was bought by a company that needed to move the ship with an 81' beam through the 80' wide Ballard Locks. It was done by weighting down one side of the ship and then transiting the locks while tilted 38 degrees. #FunFactFriday https://t.co/wtzXx7JR5u
