USS S-2
(SS-106)

View looking forward from the bridge, while she was underway in the Caribbean Sea, August 1921.
S-2 had recently been fitted with an enlarged bow structure, as seen here, to improve her seakeeping. Note the sealed breech mechanism of her "wet" type 4"/50 deck gun.

Copied from the collection of David J. Lohr, by courtesy of Radioman 1st Class Pamela J. Boyer, USN, 1986.
