| USS RANGER READY FOR FULL SEADUTY |
| This is a shot from the floor
of the dry-dock (note the men walking at right to get some idea of the scale) which sweeps up Ranger's hull, and shows the new bow in place and complete. Note the water coming out of the vents on the side of the ship. While in dry-dock all ship functions were continued (no housing ashore, no office work ashore, everyone that COULD work DID work in dry-dock) . . . that proved to be an easy task for at least half of the crew, who were Bremerton Overhaul veterans aboard RANGER in the 76-78 timeframe. |
