USS Texas (Battleship Texas Foundation) LaPorte, Texas
As a WWI-era battleship, this is indeed a classic straight-bow dreadnaught. The USS Texas served in both WWI and WWII. Interesting fact – during World War II she escorted convoys across the Atlantic during WWII, then provided gun support for the D-Day invasion.
