Launch of destroyer 30 -- Tokyo (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• TVL1970 said:

  Mutsuki-class IJN Destroyer No. 30, upon launching on October 6, 1926, at Ishikawajima Shipyard, Tokyo. She'd be re-named IJN Nagatsuki (DD-30), in August 1928. Nagasutki would ultimately be holed, beached, and destroyed at Kolombangara in July 1943, during the Battle of Kula Gulf. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_destroyer_Nagatsuki_(1926)
