An undated photo of S-33 but most likely circa mid 1930's, possibly Cavite or Pearl Harbor. We can't identify the location, but it appears to be a navy yard of some sorts. The date is after modifications that lead to the cutting away of the after superstructure and installation of the messenger buoy. The sub is sitting at the dock with a down by the bow angle. You can see the waterline marks on the hull and around the messenger buoy fairing.
