USS Corsair (SP-159)
Members of the ship's crew posed on the after deckhouse in mid-1917,
soon after she entered Navy service. These men are spelling out
Corsair's name in semaphore ("wig-wag") code.
Note the ship's after conning station in the center foreground,
speaking tubes at the end of the deckhouse, and the after pair
of 3"/50 guns.
