|translation =There is glory enough for us all.<ref>A quote from Admiral Giffen, repeated by her first captain, Francis E.M. Whiting, before the Battle of Casablanca.
<br>
"The time has now come to prove ourselves worthy of the trust placed in us by our nation. If circumstances force us to fire upon the French, our once victorious ally, let it be done with the firm conviction that we are striking not at the French people, but at the men who prefer Hitler's slavery to freedom. If we fight, hit hard and break clean. '''There is glory enough for us all.''' Good luck. Go with God."</ref>

*Her damaged CG depicts a hole in her flag. This is a reference to a corresponding event during the Battle of Casablanca where a French 8-inch shell tore through her national ensign. The flag was purposefully larger in hopes that the French forces would not fire on the Americans. [https://i.imgur.com/ua62E00.jpg The original flag is currently on display in the museum ship.]
*The art of the small character shown on her remodel’s turret 2 is [https://i.imgur.com/wV33fXe.jpg “George the Gremlin”]. While painted by her sailors during the war, there is debate over the reason for the depiction of a gremlin. The original painting was recently discovered to be on turret 1, making the recreation on turret 2 technically erroneous.
