    Easily recognizable. He had no neck. But he was a really smart guy.

    Though the date written on the negative is 3/4/22, the medal he is wearing is from an electrical engineering convention in Cincinnati in August, 1915.

    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.
