  Written on the negative is 4/10/25 or 4/20/25. About this time, the Navy was planning an exercise to capture a Hawaiian island, with the opposition being from a naval base on the island. See NYT of April 5 1925 timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1925/04/05/10165426... with headline "SEEK COORDINATION IN PACIFIC WAR PLAY Army and Navy Manoeuvres Will Put Theories to Practical Test, Says Gen. Hines. AIM IS TO 'TAKE' HAWAII Army Chief of Staff Will Leave Today to Act as Chief Umpire With Admiral Coontz." In NYT of May 10, 1925, a long piece about the exercises, timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1925/05/10/10166412... names the California as the flagship of the "Blue" fleet.

  Clearly, this photo belongs in another collection, not this one. The BB5 Kearsarge (commissioned in 1900) was converted to a crane ship in 1920 (see photo in the link below), was moved from the west coast to the Boston Naval Shipyard in 1948, and was scrapped in 1955. commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:USS_Kearsarge_as_crane_sh...
