WISCONSIN received the first direct hit in her two-war history when one of four 155mm shells fired by enemy shore batteries hit her deck on the 02 level, just outside the gun shield of the starboard 40mm gun mount which caused little damage but injured three men. Almost as if the victim of a personal affront, WISCONSIN subsequently blasted that battery to oblivion with a 16-inch salvo before continuing her mission.
