I'm noticing a lot of people aren't putting in placemarks. Why? I want to see these so badly!

Oddly, the piers at NWS Earle are empty in this shot. I was hoping to find the USS Seattle (AOE-3) here.

Actually, the original name of the USCGC EAGLE was HORST WESSEL, not VESSEL.

This is the Battleship Texas, it was a battleship in WW2, now it is located on the grounds of the battle of San Jacinto (Texas Revolution).

There are many more pictures about the US Navy's Point Honda Disaster of 1923 at this web page. Below is one example.
