We don't see many ships in port around these parts.

It is possible to sail from Muskogee, OK to the Gulf of Mexico and that blows many people's minds.
Well this ship may have been named after the WW2 ship which in turn was named after this town, so kind of the same thing. BTW I got the homeport wrong, Halifax is home port for all this class ship, I think.

In any case, thanks for looking. From Muskogee to the gulf by which water way? I'm guessing the Arkansas and the mighty Mississippi, ??
