Why did the USS Texas deliberately flood itself?
- The idea that the crew of a battleship would intentionally flood the vessel during a wartime operation seems absolutely ludicrous, and totally irresponsible. And yet that's exactly what happened in June 1944 when a risky decision was made to swamp the USS Texas below decks with seawater during the Normandy Landings.

Involvement in the Tampico Incident
- One of her first operational duties was to sail with the US naval force off the coast of Veracruz, Mexico, in what became known as the Tampico Incident. The Americans occupied the port city for six months in a diplomatic tit-for-tat after nine US sailors had been seized by the Mexican authorities after wandering into a restricted zone.

blisters were added as protection against torpedo attack. These would feature later in the flooding incident Texas is famous for.

Flagship of the American fleet
- During this period, Texas was honored with a visit from Admiral William V. Pratt, commander in chief of the United States Fleet. The vessel would emerge from her refit as the flagship of the American fleet. For the next 12 years, Texas steamed the
Atlantic and Pacific, representing American naval power.

17 / 31 Fotos
Missing their target
- Because Allied troops had advanced so far inland, retreating German defenses were now out of range of the ship's guns. Shells were dropping short of enemy targets. It was then that the crew came up with an ingenious way of rectifying the situation.

Flooding the Texas
- In order to zero in on the German lines, port (right) side guns needed to be elevated higher than their maximum levels. To achieve this, the starboard torpedo blisters were flooded to lower the left-hand side of the vessel.
© Getty Images
19 / 31 Fotos
Ingenious solution
- By purposely flooding the starboard torpedo blisters the crew had gained the extra two degrees needed to fire the port guns accurately. It was an ingenious solution. Most vessels would never voluntarily flood part of their hull, but this daring move embodied the spirit the Allied forces demonstrated at Normandy.

A lucky escape
- Texas might have suffered more casualties had it not been for an incredible stroke of luck. Pictured is Rear Admiral Carleton F. Bryant (left) and Captain Charles A.

D-Day stories: Why the USS Texas deliberately flooded itself
One of the most bizarre incidents of the Second World War
© Public Domain
One of the lesser-known facts about the Second World War is the extraordinary incident that took place during the Normandy Landings when the crew of the battleship USS Texas purposely flooded the vessel in the thick of the action. Most vessels would never voluntarily flood part of their hull, especially during wartime, so why was this bizarre decision made, and what did it achieve?
Click through and revisit the moment seawater was deliberately allowed to swamp the lower decks of one America's most famous warships.
