USS Greenwich Bay (AVP-41)
Photographed circa 1958 from a Martin P5M, whose port side wing
float is visible at the top of the photo.
Other P5M aircraft are parked at the seaplane base below. The
small cargo ship with the heavy lift booms amidships may be USNS
Col. William J. O'Brien (T-AK-246) or USNS Short Splice
(T-AK-249). Note also the small unidentified structure on Greenwich
Bay's after deck.
The original print carried the rubber stamped date 22 May 1958
on its reverse side.
