    WASHINGTON (Aug. 5, 2016) - Having endured the elements for more than 20 years, conservators with the Warren Lasch Conservation Center (WLCC) clear away dirt around the 6-inch, 30 caliber gun from the U.S. Navy battleship Maine, Aug.5, on the Washington Navy Yard. The Maine attained infamy when it was sunk in Havana Harbor, Cuba, being the catalyst of the Spanish-American War in 1898. The Naval History and Heritage Command contracted WLCC to perform extensive conservation work on the gun to preserve it for future generations.
