Description
English: The U.S. Navy heavy cruiser USS Minneapolis (CA-36) refueling at sea from the fleet oiler USS Platte (AO-24), during the Marshall Islands operation, January 1944. Platte was one of the few oilers that were fitted with a Mark 37 gun director, visible atop her bridge. Note the red navigation light on the oiler's port bridge wing. Photographed from USS Cowpens (CVL-25). Note Minneapolis' unique camouflage that should let her appear to be a destroyer.
