USS Abner Reed
(DD-526)

Halftone reproduction of a photograph taken circa April 1943, showing the ship as first completed.
This image was retouched by wartime censors to eliminate radar antennas atop the foremast and Mark 37 gun director. It was also published reversed, so the bow points right instead of left.

Official U.S. Navy Photograph, from the collections of the Naval History and Heritage Command.
