Shot of a US Navy Ship in dry Dock.

 

I can not tell if the bow numbers say; ARS 5 or ARS 15

 

If it is ARS 5 it served in the Atlantic

 

If it is the ARS 15, it served in the Pacific and was torpedoed by one of our own subs.

I tried to scan and crop tighter. Placing the ruler on the scanner made the picture a little fuzzy.

Salvage Sailor

Aloha,

 

That's not the EXTRACTOR (ARS-15), she was an Anchor class made by Colberg Boat works.

 

This is a Diver class ARS made by Basalt. The USS DIVER was the first in the class, ARS-5 and this could be her or ESCAPE (ARS-6) or PRESERVER (ARS-8)
