USS Von Steuben (ID # 3017)


View looking aft from just forward of the bow, while the ship was in dry dock at the New York Navy Yard, 26 February 1919.
Blisters for a recently-fitted underwater listening device are visible on both sides, low on the hull just aft of the bow. Also seen are paravane chains (possibly called "Burney Gear") running from the deck down to a fitting at the base of the stem.
