USS Owen
(DD-536)

Underway at very slow speed, circa 1945.
This image was retouched by wartime censors to remove radar antennas from the foremast and atop the Mark 37 gun director. They also partially removed nearly all of the small mainmast mounted on the after superstructure, but missed the antenna at its top.

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