Summary

Description
English: The U.S. Navy attack transport USS Barnett (APA-5) departing San Diego, California (USA), on 19 February 1943, enroute to Norfolk, Virginia, for additional repairs. The four double boat davits fitted on each side in late 1941 have been replaced by three triple Welin davits on each side. The 5"/51 gun aft has been removed and two 40-mm twin mounts have been fitted, one forward and one aft. The nearest ship in the background is probably the attack cargo ship USS Alcyone (AKA-7).
