Here we see a group of American destroyers at the Chinese port of Chefoo (modern Yantai), one of the US Navy's regular summer bases in China in the 1930s. On the left is the destroyer depot ship USS Black Hawk (AD-9). To its right is a series of Clemson class destroyers - USS Bulmer (DD-222), USS Pillsbury (DD-227), USS Pope (DD-225), USS John D Ford (DD-228), USS Edsall (DD-219) and USS Peary (DD-226)
