USS Graf Waldersee (ID # 4040)
Under tow by USS Patricia off Long Island on 12 June 1919,
after she had been disabled in collision with S.S. Redondo.
Graf Waldersee was towed to shallow water, where collision
damage was sufficiently patched to allow her return to New York
for permanent repairs.
Photographed from on board Patricia. Two tugs are also
present.
