• Cynthia Wenslow said:

  This is Major General Harry Lee, USMC (June 4 1872 - March 1 1933). Lee was appointed a Second Lieutenant in the US Marine Corps for the war with Spain August 2 1898. He served at the Havana Naval Station during the war and in various ships of the Navy and Marine Corps stations following it. Joining the 6th Regiment in 1917, Lee commanded the 6th Regiment at Chateau Thierry, St. Mihiel, and the Argonne Forest and marched with the Army to the Rhine. After the war he commanded the Marine Brigade in Santo Domingo, sent in 1921 to pacify the country and establish constitutional government. For 3 years he served as military governor of the country. Later General Lee commanded Marine Barracks, Parris Island, and while in command of the Marine base at Quantico, Va., died March 1 1933. For his World War I service, Major General Lee was awarded the Army and Navy Distinguished Service Medals, the French Legion of Honor, and other decorations.

  This one is interesting - it is 1933 or early 1934. The experimental twin .50-cal anti-aircraft gun mount is still on 8" mount #2, but the flag bridge has been modified and the rangefinder moved up a level, with the radio direction cabin removed. The two vertical objects at the top of the mast on either side are altimeters for measuring the altitude of incoming aircraft, part of the Mk 19 director system.

  I like this thing. Too bad it didn't come to be. Oh well, even though I like it, the real question is, was something like this actually legitimately _Needed_? That is the factor which really matters.
