Photo #: 80-G-33191 USS Seawolf (SS-197) Periscope photograph of one of Seawolf's victims, torpedoed in the Philippines-East Indies area in the fall of 1942. This ship carries at least one landing craft forward, has a searchlight atop her pilothouse and a gun mounted at the aft end of the midships superstructure. A lifeboat is hanging from one davit, alongside the smokestack. Her general configuration resembles the S.S. Gifu Maru, sunk on 2 November 1942, but she could also be the converted gunboat Keiko Maru, sunk on 8 November. Official U.S. Navy Photograph, now in the collections of the National Archives.
