Enlisted sailors gather informally on the deck of a U.S. Navy cruiser near the base of the ship's funnel and boat davits, a scene of everyday shipboard camaraderie in the 'Old Navy' era. Dressed largely in white summer service uniforms with flat caps, the crew reflects the dress and customs of the fleet around the turn of the twentieth century, when USS Columbia (C-12) and her sister ships carried American sailors across the globe.
