In the near distance at center, the USS Mississippi (BB 41) is moored in a harbor. It faces left and is viewed from its port side and stern. At the stern, text along the ship reads, "MISSISSIPPI," and an American flag waves. The ship carries 2 visible aircraft, which appear to hover over mid-ship. A couple small boats sail on either side of the naval vessel. A populated shoreline stretches across the horizon.
