Summary
Photo #: 80-G-K-14925 (Color)
USS Missouri (BB-63) aground on Thimble Shoals, Virginia, 21 January 1950, as several harbor tugs attempt to free her. She went aground on 17 January and was refloated on 1 February.
Note minesweepers and other ships in the shipping channel beyond Missouri’s stern. Their apparent closeness indicates that the photograph was taken with a telephoto lens.
