Title: USS Nero
Description: (1898-1922, later AC-17) At sea during a storm on 5 September 1912 during the 1912 Alaskan Radio Expedition. The view was taken from the ship's bridge looking forward, with the top of one of the ship's short kingposts and a canvas covered boat in the foreground. The ship was probably underway riding out the storm off Unalga Island, Alaska, just before completing her work there. Nero encountered numerous violent storms during this expedition.
