Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Hutchins (DD-476) underway off Boston, Massachusetts (USA), on 24 January 1943. Hutchins was to be one of the six Fletcher-class destroyers intended to have a catapult, but she apparently never had one installed. In this photo, Hutchins has been restored to a fleet destroyer with five 127mm guns, two quintuple torpedo lauchers, a twin 40mm gun mount on the fantail and what looks to be 9-20mm guns.
