Looking down Pier 1010, toward the Navy dry docks. The minelayer Oglala,lay on her side ship in front of Oglala, is cruiser Helena. Smoke at right, comes from the destroyer Shaw. Smoke to the left, from the burning destroyers Cassin and Downes. Battleship at far right, is U.S.S. Nevada beached and on fire.
