    BB=32, one of the many ships that took part in the Vera Cruz operations we have seen recently here. The markings on her stern seem to indicate she is under construction still in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, 1912. www.history.navy.mil/photos/sh-usn/usnsh-w/bb32.htm

    The Wyoming, flagship of the Atlantic Fleet, anchored off 82d Street in the Hudson River on May 8, 1915 at the start of a 10 day series of activities including a Presidential review of the fleet. The details, including primary sources, are covered in an excellent web page devoted to these events, at www.brighteningglance.org/fleet-week-may-1915.html.
