Band On Deck~USS West Virginia PACIFIC FLEET Navy Battle Ship RPPC Postcard -H2

Description: Neat old RPPC showing crew on deck of USS West Virginia about 1907-1910. USS West Virginia (ACR-5) was launched on 1903. After shakedown training, West Virginia cruised with the New York Naval Militia as a unit of the Atlantic Fleet until 30 September 1906 when she sailed for duty with the Asiatic Fleet. The ship remained with the Asiatic Fleet / First Squadron of the Pacific Fleet from early 1907 for two years on training operations, and after overhaul at Mare Island in 1908 joined the Pacific Fleet for similar exercises along the West Coast of the United States. In 1911–1912, she made a cruise with the Fleet to Hawaiian waters and in 1914 steamed on special duty off the west coast of Mexico for the protection of American interests. She remained off Mexico during the Veracruz crisis, and returned to Bremerton, Washington, to become a part of the Pacific Reserve Fleet. CONDITION: UnMailed. VG Light wear & surface imperfections.
