Retired at last This is the change of command ceremony aboard USS Wyoming (BB-32) at the Brooklyn Navy Yard (New York Naval Shipyard - NYNSY) as Admiral Frank Friday Fletcher (uncle of WWII-era Admiral Frank Jack Fletcher) took command of the Atlantic Fleet on September 16, 1914. See: www.navsource.org/archives/01/32a.htm and NH 95153 - Atlantic Fleet change of command ceremonies, on board USS Wyoming, 1914.

Retired at last and TVL 1970: Thanks for providing the context for this image, and more complete information on Adm. Fletcher. (And thank you for linking to sources!) We will add more details to this record when we update.
