EDITORS COMMENTS
Moored alongside a quayside in the early years of the century are two stalwarts of the United States Navy: USS Snapper (SS-29) and USS Stingray (SS-27). This striking black-and-white photograph, captured by renowned press photographer George Grantham Bain's news service between 1910 and 1915, offers a glimpse into the naval warfare heritage of America during this pivotal period. The two submarines, with their sleek profiles and imposing mooring ropes, exude an air of quiet confidence as they rest alongside the dock.
The USS Snapper was one of the earliest commissioned American submarines, while its companion vessel, USS Stingray, played a significant role in World War I. This photograph not only showcases these formidable vessels but also highlights the importance of naval power during this era. As part of Bain News Service's extensive archive, this image has been preserved for generations to come as a testament to America's rich maritime history.
