Zo663. I’m not sure where this in Pearl Harbor under the Japanese attack. I think, we are looking at the Naval Shipyard, I believe that is what we called the Hammer Head Crane. This picture was provided by the Berger Girl’s URL, above.

Zo666

Zo666. I know what ship that is, it is an ASR, Submarine Rescue Ship. I was stationed on USS Coucal ASR-8, 1975-77 in Pearl Harbor. This is an earlier one. The Four Point Mooring buoys are stored horizontal. On my ship they were more at midships and were stored vertical. On my ship the after boom and the McCann Rescue Chamber were painted Navy haze grey. This picture was provided by the Berger Girl’s URL, above.
