Strip Ship

USS Orion AS-18

Our first view of ORION was of her stern as we passed by in the workboat.

 

 

  Once aboard, the group split up into teams to make sure we covered as much of the ship as we could. There were no lights on board, so all work was done by flashlight.

This picture was taken on the port side looking forward, on the deck above the machine shop.

We had hoped to find some stray parts related to periscopes here, but it was stripped clean.
