Description

Author IJN (The photo was found in February of 1944 and placed in a scrapbook assembled by CDR William H. Balden, USNR, documenting his World War II service).

The dark smoke billowing from the funnel of the following battleship indicates she is still burning coal. Also note the stern is relatively short. The work done to extend it to maintain her speed despite the addition of armour plating and a wider torpedo was completed in her refitting from 1934 to 1936.
