I have been told by many people that my blog was a little misleading. The ship was not part of the battle between Texas and Mexico for which the memorial was built. The ship is located at the Battleship Texas State Park (across the street from the memorial). Because the park was closed, we didn't get to go inside and learn about the ship so I looked up some information and this is the brief history of the ship: " The Texas began her career in a rush being sent to Vera Cruz Mexico even before the ship was finished in 1914. She ended her career serving proudly in WW II and is still afloat today as a living memorial to the men who served aboard her during all of those years".
