These are the first of 13 ships to be brought across the Atlantic from the US Reserve Fleet moored in the James River, Va., in a contract made with MARAD, to be dismantled at Hartlepool. Due to problems with the licensing of the Graythorp yard, they were still there in March 2007. Visible are (l-r): USS Compass Island (AG-153), USS Canopus (AS-34), USS Canisteo (AO-99), and USS Caloosahatchee (AO-98).
