Troops on board ship
, circa the last half of 1918

Photographed from the forward superstructure of a U.S. Navy destroyer, whose port side midships 4"50 gun is at left.
At least some of the troops on board the ship are members of an African-American unit.
This ship's structure appears identical to that of USS Henry R. Mallory (ID # 1280).
Note crates of cargo on the main deck, and pattern camouflage.
The original photograph was printed on post card ("AZO") stock.

Donation of Dr. Mark Kulikowski, 2007.
