Battleship Texas participated in various fleet maneuvers and exercises in the Atlantic Ocean (1919) and later Pacific Ocean from July 1919 through January 1924. Beginning in February 1923, maneuvers became known as Fleet Problems, which continued to 1939.
Lawrence Gaddis collected many souvenirs during his travels around North and South America, as well as from events held on the ship or by the crew, and articles mentioning Battleship Texas in the papers.
“The Texan” was a weekly newspaper, started in 1920, and published by the crew of Battleship Texas. The paper was published until 1923, running a total of four volumes, with special issues into 1924.Collection
