A lifesized replica of a World War II-era battleship USS Colorado that’s taking shape on the banks of Brighton’s Mann-Nyholt Lake will never see naval service, but it’s already received honors from the U.S. Navy. Several U.S. Navy officers joined veterans and Adams County officials for the official “mast stepping” ceremony for the replica battleship, destined to debut by Memorial Day 2023 as the county’s new Veterans Memorial. “The Navy is excited about it because they want to use it as a recruitment tool, bring potential recruits, maybe bring out veterans to do physical therapy, weddings, military weddings, or commissioning of officers or chiefs, or retirements. We are going to have the USS Colorado’s bell the same one on the submarine, “ said Adam County Commissioner Charles “Chaz” Tedesco, a retired Navy Veteran. Crews are continuing to build the Veterans Memorial at the Riverdale
Regional Park, on the shore of MannNyholt Lake. It’s meant to honor past, present, and future veterans for their sacrifices to defend our country, Tedesco said. Meaning behind mast stepping The mast stepping ceremony was celebrated on Dec. 7, which is the Remembrance Day of Pearl Harbor. Veterans and community members placed mementos in a box that were placed inside the battleship’s mast. U.S. Navy Command Master Chief Benjamin Chester, a 22-year veteran who has deployed on three different ships, gave of speech on what the stepping of the mast means and the ceremony’s history. “The stepping of the mast is a meaningful event of the building a ship,” Chester said. “The mast is carefully lowered through the whole main deck surrounded by reinforcing shocks reinforcing shocks security structural beams, the mast was in jostled into position through a slot into the keelson.” See the full story in the Brighton Standard Blade and the Fort Lupton Press or online.
