Description
Ships take part in the celebrations held on Navy Day in New York Harbor. The destroyer USS Renshaw, carrying President Harry S.

Anchored ships are, from the foreground, the USS Augusta, the USS Midway, the USS Enterprise, the USS Missouri, the USS New York, the USS Helena, and the USS Macon. From the scrapbooks of Matt Connelly, Vol. 1.
