Brass Shell Case from the Battle of Guadalcanal 1943-1943 3-inch/50-caliber "three-inch fifty-calibre" cartridge Expended round and 2 walking sticks from Guadalcanal. Dual-purpose 3"/50-caliber guns first entered service in 1915 as a refit to USS Texas (BB-35) and were subsequently mounted on many types of ships as the need for anti-aircraft protection was recognized. During World War II, they were the primary gun armament on destroyer escorts, patrol frigates, submarine chasers, minesweepers, some fleet submarines, and other auxiliary vessels, and were used as a secondary dual-purpose battery on some other types of ships, including some older battleships. .
