Summary

The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Meade (DD-602) off New York City on 20 June 1942, probably during her delivery voyage from the Bethlehem Steel Company shipyard at Staten Island. The ship, which is flying her builder's flag, was commissioned two days later. Note that no radars are fitted, yet, and her Measure 12 (Modified) pattern camouflage.
