This site has some info, unfortunately nothing specific about the
D-Day museum itself:

In part,

"USS ALABAMA and USS DRUM (as of 9-1). Jeff Nilsson, executive director of
the Historical Navel Ships Association, reported on 8-31 that the ALABAMA
was listing eight degrees to port (toward the pier), but the USS DRUM is
apparently in good shape. The concrete gangway has been critically damaged,
while the airplane hanger suffered damage to all sides and the planes are in
a pile. The Pavilion and Gift Shop both suffered damage. There are two feet
of water in the Gift Shop. "
