80-G-K-9343 USS Missouri (BB-63)

Original caption indicates that this photo shows USS Missouri (BB-63) anchored off Piraeus, Greece, April 1946. Closer inspection of ship configuration, as well as comparison to photo 80-G-366527 taken off Greece in April 1946, seems to indicate that this photo was taken at a later date.
