What is the USS Kidd?

 The USS Kidd Memorial Museum is a destination with extreme historical significance with regards to Louisiana history. Located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, this Fletcher-class destroyer is the six-hundred sixty-first destroyer ship constructed by the United States Navy. The name of the ship has been inspired by Rear Admiral Isaac Campbell Kidd Sr. who was killed aboard the USS Arizona during the infamous Pearl Harbor Attack on December 7, 1941. The ship has since been restored to its pre-World War II condition and now welcomes hundreds of thousands of visitors annually.
