USS Lansdale
(Destroyer # 101/DM-6)

Steaming at high speed on two boilers, circa 1921, following conversion to a light minelayer. The Mine Force emblem is painted on her bow, and mines are resting on their tracks aft.
Though redesignated DM-6 in July 1920, Lansdale probably continued to wear her destroyer number for some years thereafter.
USS Woodcock (AM-14) is partially visible in the right background.
