April 2008 Recently I stumbled across an interesting set of WWI subchaser photos, starting on this page of the CactusThorns site.

Walter Godwin was a crewman on subchaser SC 291, one of the chasers built at the Bremerton shipyard, and coincidentally, one of the chasers that was present in the group that traversed the Panama Canal as shown in the Panama Canal - William B. May Collection posted last month.
