Crewmen on SC 59. The davit shown in this photograph was used to lift 350-lb. depth charges (each containing 300 lbs. of TNT) to the Y-gun. Charges were stowed in in a storage room just below decks, and accessed through a hatch just aft of the Y-gun.

The hatch shown in this photo, lower left, is the hatch to the galley.
