Fictional Appereance[edit]

Interesting note: Fort Jay is heavily featured in the last part of the video game Freedom Fighters. The player characters shoots up the place, running under, in, around and on the structure, killing bad guys. Lots42 (talk) 02:32, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Fort Columbus[edit]

Since the articles are about the exact same fort, I am proposing to merge Fort Columbus into this article. Discussion is welcome. RobDuch (talk) 21:30, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge complete. RobDuch (talk) 03:16, 20 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Rodman gun photo[edit]

For what it's worth, the photo captioned "10-inch Rodman guns" is clearly actually the 15-inch gun (left) and one of the 10-inch guns (right), as the larger 15-inch (visibly different construction details, not to mention the scale difference) is placed at the centre of the three guns in the "pointy" part of the star shape.
