Patrol planes fly over DesRon20 destroyers, during an exhibition
staged for Movietone News off San Diego, California, 14 September
1936.
Planes include one PBY-1 of Patrol Squadron 11 (upper right),
flying in formation with four P2Ys of Patrol Squadron 7. In the
distance are four PM-1s of Patrol Squadron 9.
Ships are steaming in line abreast, shortly after passing through
a smokescreen. The three nearest the camera are (from right to
left): Dewey (DD-349), Hull (DD-350) and Macdonough
(DD-351).
