This photo likely precedes the one on the previous page. O-13 is in a nest between O-15 and O-16 and is preparing to get underway with a deck load of sailors going on liberty. This was not a normal practice, as the tender would use its own small boats to ferry the crews ashore. For some reason it was decided to use the O-13 for this function. The location is likely near Panama in 1920-1923.
