USS General J. C. Breckinridge
(T-AP-176)

At Pearl Harbor, circa 1946-1947.
Note the large improvised covers over her forward 5-inch guns, which are probably in a state of preservation. Different style covers were used on different ships of this class.
The ship's paint scheme may be that of the Naval Transportation Service (NTS), which was replaced by the Military Sea Transport Service (MSTS) in 1949.

Collection of Rear Admiral Bradford Bartlett, USN.
