"I got this photo on Ebay. It's been hand colored by the artist (look closely at the flag) and I was told it was taken at Pearl in 1971. I can't tell whether she was coming or going. The crew is in whites, so it wasn't an average day at sea. I would appreciate any info anyone might have about this picture."
I will have it framed and donate it to the archives. Thank you, Susan Deal, March 2001. |

"The attached is a rendering of the Wardroom picture that was in the Edwards, post ASROC conversion in Long Beach. Interestingly, the VDS shown was not installed at that time and was added later. The Wardroom picture was given away later but I do not recall the details. ... I had the task of replacing it while in WestPac... "
