Photo #: 19-N-104892 Admiralty Camouflage Design, "A" Type Drawing prepared by the Bureau of Ships for a camouflage scheme of British Royal Navy type (and using British paint colors), intended for application to an escort ship of the Buckley (DE-51) class. This plan, approved by Captain Torvald A. Solberg, USN, is dated 11 September 1944. It shows the ship's starboard side, horizontal surfaces and superstructure ends. Note that this camouflage scheme calls for painting the ship's port side in Admiralty Camouflage Design, "D" Type, probably for comparison purposes during testing at sea.
