    Love looking at old navy ships.

    Gerard Knight I love looking at the sailors! No doubt this will lead to sniggering from some of you (you know who you are!), but look at the nonchalant leaning, the smoking, the chatting... And look at the guy in the middle on Boat 63 who's been captured in the act of drinking from a huge metal container!
  • Bill Sherwood said:

    interesting, there are 3 african american men, plus a 2 men in a derby hat mixed in. One of the 3 is wearing the same hat as the others. In some ways the navy was more integrated than society as a whole at this time.

A motley crew?
