Description:
Black & white print of a photograph showing LST-509 (U.S.S. Bulloch County) sailing along an unknown coastline, possibly on a river. The ship appears to be carrying no cargo on the main deck, though all 4 of the ship's 6 davits appear to be loaded with LCVPs or other smaller craft. Two groups of sailors in dress whites can be seen standing on the main deck and another ship is visible in the background. The ship's number is stamped in gold lettering at the bottom and a copyright mark for "Our Navy, Inc" is printed in the lower right corner.
