USS Atlanta (IX-304)
Seen from astern, at the Hunters' Point Naval Shipyard, San Francisco,
California, circa October 1964, while completing conversion to
a weapons effects test ship.
The original picture caption, released by 12th Naval District
Office of Public Information, reads: "Either way you look
at it you face the front of the Atlanta, or so it seems.
One of the experimental ship's two DLG (guided missile frigate)
deck houses faces forward while the other points aft over the
fantail."
