USS Cowpens (CVL-25) at Mare Island, 1945
Here we see the Independence class light carrier USS Cowpens (CVL-25) at the Mare Island Navy Yard on 15 May 1945. Amongst the marked changes are two extra AA positions in small platforms below deck level and a new radar outfit. From this angle we get a good view of two of her angled funnels, and of the rear of the tiny island.
