Description
View of some of the participants in a formal military exchange ceremony in which the United States Navy turned over two destroyers and six gunboats to the Italian navy. Location was the port of Brindisi, Italy, just 70 miles from Soviet dominated Albania. Identification of the four men standing together include right to left: Italian Secretary of Defense Randolfo Pacciardi; U.S. Ambassador to Italy (1946-1952) James C. Dunn; U.S. Admiral Robert B. Carney; and U.S. Congress Representative Joseph W. Martin from New York. The men appear to be on one of the ships involved in the exchange.
