Title: USS Carola IV
Caption:
Description: Officers and Men assigned to the ship, photographed at Chateau Barracks, Brest, France in June 1919. The large number present indicates that they were nominally assigned to Carola IV, a rather small converted yacht used as an accommodation ship at Brest, but were actually stationed ashore. Panoramic photograph by Thompson Illustragraph Company, Petersburg, Virginia. Lieutenant John D. Pennington, USNRF, is standing in the middle of the arch just to the left of center, with his left hand in front of his waist and right hand in his pants pocket. Note the musical instruments in the extreme left foreground. Donation of Georgia Adams Grann and Caryl L. Adams, 2005. The original print came from the collection of their father, George W. Adams, who enlisted in the Navy in 1908. U.S. Naval History and Heritage Command Photograph.
