Stingray entering the water for the first time as she slides down the ways at the Fore River Shipbuilding Company in Quincy, MA., April 8, 1909.

U.S. Navy photo

C-2 with seven lady visitors posing for the camera. Photo dated March 29, 1919 and the C-2 was stationed at Coco Solo, Panama at the time. When not in use the topside helm wheel was detached from the helm pedestal and the wheel was stowed on the side of the periscope shears, as shown here. The hatch to the conning tower is open and directly above the lady's heads.

Photo in the private collection of Ric Hedman.
