Harriet N. Eldridge
(U.S. Dragger, 1940)

Photographed soon after completion. This is probably the Harriet N. Eldridge built in 1940, acquired by the Navy on 4 November 1940, and put into service on 6 June 1941 as USS Flamingo (AMc-22). She was reclassified IX-180 on 17 July 1944 and stricken on 8 January 1946.
A nearly identical Harriet N. Eldridge was built in 1941, put into service by the Navy as AMb-20 on 28 April 1942, renamed YP-378 on 1 May 1942 and stricken on 16 September 1944.

The original print is in National Archives' Record Group 19-LCM.
