USS General J. C. Breckinridge

The ship's playroom for children, featuring a brightly colored mural with a toy auto race track at the bottom. Everything in the room, including the "scuttlebutt" (drinking fountain), was scaled for the convenience and comfort of children. Photographed on 18 May 1959, just after the ship completed a refurbishment.
