  I'm reading a book now about the submarine Batfish and the tender Proteus plays a role in the story. But it turns out it's a different, later ship.

  Can anyone make-out the name of the tug?

• The Library of Congress said:

  perfgeek: Tug name appears to be "Dauntless," although first letter is somewhat difficult to read.
