A U.S. Navy sailor stands on the deck of the fleet submarine USS Charr (SS-328) alongside a repair pier, near one of the boat's canvas-shrouded anti-aircraft gun mounts. Commissioned in 1944, Charr conducted Pacific war patrols during World War II before continuing service into the postwar years. This informal photograph captures the everyday routine of submarine life in port, framed against the industrial backdrop of a naval shipyard. Project: 218697
