Photo postcard US battleship ‘Vermont’ in fierce storm at sea c.1913

This was an iconic image, reproduced in several magazines and on postcards. While cruising back to America in December 1913 after spending time in the Mediterranean, a five day gale snapped one of her propeller shafts and she had to be towed back to Norfolk VA.

The photo was taken from the accompanying vessel the ‘Wyoming’, often attributed to a Mr. N. Moser.

Based on ‘AZO’ photograph paper used, confirms date as 1904-1918.

Paper chipped LR corner and on lower border. Chipped on back lower border. Smudge on back.

 

USS Vermont (BB-20), a Connecticut-class battleship, was the second ship of the United States Navy named after the 14th state. Vermont was laid down in May 1904 at the Fore River shipyard and launched in August 1905. The ship entered service with the Atlantic Fleet in March 1907.

Shortly after she entered service, Vermont joined the Great White Fleet for its circumnavigation of the globe in 1908–1909. She took part in the international Hudson–Fulton Celebration in New York in 1909 and made trips to Europe in 1910 and 1913. Thereafter, the ship became involved in interventions in several Central American countries, including the United States occupation of Veracruz during the Mexican Revolution, where two of her crew earned the Medal of Honor. During the United States' participation in World War I from April 1917 to November 1918, Vermont served as a training ship for engine room personnel. From November 1918 to June 1919, she made a series of trips to return American soldiers from Europe before being decommissioned in June 1920.
