USS Alcedo (SP-166)
Picking up survivors in 1917.
This photograph was probably taken on 17 October 1917, when Alcedo
rescued survivors of the steamer Antilles, or on 28 October
1917, when she picked up men who had left the torpedoed transport
Finland. Alcedo was herself torpedoed and sunk on 5 November 1917.
