In 1919 she was the 1st US Battleship to launch an aircraft from her deck. In 1939 she had the first radar in the US Navy installed. In 1940 she was designated as the Flagship to the US Atlantic Fleet. Early in 1941 the First Marine Division was formed aboard her. On April 21, 1948 she was decommissioned.
