Cub Scout Pack 189 took a trip to the most decorated Navy ship in history, The Battleship New Jersey in Camden. The trip was a little wet but we still had a great time taking a tour around the ship. We got to take a ride in the Flight Simulator and roam around the ship with our great tour guides. We had dinner and breakfast just like the sailors did back when ship was in battle and we slept in their bunks. We sure learned a lot about the Navy and the historical importance of this fine Navy vessel.
