Title: USS Atlanta (IX-304)
Description: Shock mounting system for equipment mounted on board Atlanta, photographed as she was completing conversion to a weapons effects test ship at the Hunters' Point Naval Shipyard, San Francisco, California, circa October 1964. The original picture caption, released by 12th Naval District Office of Public Information, reads: The shock mounted recorders are suspended on 'rubber rope' between the ceiling and deck. Regardless of the shock the ship receives, the equipment will float free insuring accurate recording. Official U.S. Navy Photograph, from the collections of the Naval History and Heritage Command.
