Jerry sent me quite a few photographs, some will appear here, the rest will be posted as the page evolves. Many of Jerry's photos are slides. Since I can't afford $700 for a good scanner for slides, some of the pictures are not as good a quality as they could be. I apologise to Jerry for this. |

Jerry Johnson, pictured, took this photo, left, while the ship was doing "angles and dangles". In the lower right corner there is a flashlight hanging on a string (see inset.) I measured the angle and the ship was at about a 29 degree down angle. The right photo I altered so that jerry is upright. The angle that the ship is at is quite obvious . |
