| Battleship Wreathed In Flame |
| Wonderful Night Photograph of the Wyoming |
| The Wyoming, firing at night, with her five-inch guns,
while powerful searchlights play over the surface of the sea. This is one
of the most remarkable and most beautiful naval photographs ever made. The
men clustered about the deck, the flare of the gun as the smoke and flame
pour from its mouth and the shafts of light that stab the darkness, from
a wonderful picture. It swas made during target practice, but such scenes
may be enacted by out gallant ships in deadly earnest if war should come.
The navy will surely maintain its heroic traditions. |
