Description: 

"1340 - 42 photos - 1340. Lacking the glamour and romance of their big sisters, sturdy little minesweepers perform an invaluable war service with a quiet thoroughness by destroying enemy-planted mines and keeping the sea lanes open for warships and convoys. 15. With a mighty roar, depth charge sends geyser of water high into the air. - Official U.S. Navy Photograph." Circa 1943
