1946

Farrell Jr., Frank A.

Print of a photograph showing the view of an unknown shoreline/port from the signal deck or mast of LST-980 (U.S.S. Meeker County), likely taken by Frank Farrell, Jr. The top of the starboard side davit can be seen in the lower right portion of the photograph while several buildings, a crane, and other structures can be seen further in the background. While no information about the location from the photo is provided, context indicates that it was most likely taken at the Naval Amphibious Base, Little Creek in Virginia.

A caption on the rear of the photograph reads "LST 980 1946" and a watermark indicates the print was made by Walmart on 8/20/2014.
