U.S.S. MISSOURI BB63 , aka , The MIGHTY MO
In Mother Russia , there are large posters commemorating the Cold War. On some of these posters , the observer will notice Mighty MO. HHmmmm...For those who don't know , The MISSOURI was the American soil representative in Tokyo Harbor for the sighning of the Japanese surrender , ending World War II.
The Soviets responded to this mistake by saying " We have similar ships to the MISSOURI , they should have used those for the pictures." Courtesy NBC
