# Talk:USS Kentucky (BB-6)

I have a doubt about the order date, since the Kearsarge was ordered on January 2, 1896 how could the Kentucky be ordered before (March 2, 1895) in the same shipyard both?
For me it was ordered on March 2, 1896, it makes more sense. Conforoa (talk) 12:06, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
