Title: USS Procyon Note:
Description: Photo #: NH 58160 USS Procyon (AG-11) Transiting the Panama Canal, sometime between the mid-1920s and 1931. She is wearing the engineering E award on her smokestack. This ship had previously been identified as USS Capella (AK-13), which was of the same basic design. However the portholes in her hull sides, and their arrangement, are unique to Procyon.
