USS North Carolina

This is the war diary from the USS North Carolina, starting from May 42 to the end of the war. It's a long read, some of it kind of tedious, but includes nifty gems like this from 18Dec44:
1550 Typhoon center passed 30NM northeast of ship. Winds exceeding 100kts, seas 70-feet. Destroyers SPENCE, MONAGHAN and HULL lost during storm and seven other ships heavily damaged
