    S132 was a German destroyer ceded to the U.S. after WWI. The U.S> minesweeper Redwing had towed on of the three ceded destroyers across the Atlantic. The destroyers had been scuttled by the Germans in Scapa Flow and raised by the British.

AL61A-038 Douglas RD-2 USCG-29 Adhara

from SDASM Archives

    Not sure, but I can't see serial 129 anywhere. However on the underside there are visible what looks like to me the digits 29 which was "Adhara's" initial serial with the Coast Guard when delivered in 1932. Stig
  • Pronto8 said:
    Adhara, name visible on the bow, was the only RD-2 in in USCG. In service from Jul32-Mar37, it carried at least 3 different serial numbers including 29, 129 and V111. I can't tell what it says under the hull either but there was only one Adhara.
