  Information seems to suggest that this is actually a Hanriot HD.2 (BuNo A-5621) on the fly-off platform on Turret No. 2 of USS Texas. One of ten HD.2 floatplanes purchased by the US Navy (and converted to wheeled landing gear), A-5621 would be lost on September 3, 1919. Source: www.joebaugher.com/navy_serials/firstseries1.html
