ABS Pack 25 took a trip to Mobile, AL on January 15, 2010 to spend the night on the USS Alabama Battleship. After boarding the ship, they chose their bunks for the night, dropped their gear, then gathered together for an evening devotional led my Mark Nave.

After the devotional, the Scouts were free to go on a night tour of the battleship. Some of the scouts even participated in a scavenger hunt.

The next morning, the scouts did not let the torrential downpour keep them from continuing their fun as they toured the rest of the Battleship Memorial Park.
