I stand corrected. Thought it was USS Pennsylvania with destroyers
Cassin and Downes in drydock at Pearl Harbor. However, Pennsylvania had
3-gun turrets rather than 2-gun turrets, and Pennsylvania was set near
the drydock caisson with Cassin and Downes at the head of the drydock,
not the other way around as in this picture.
