Description
This is an image of the USS Monongahela, AO-42, a refuel and replenishment ship seen here refueling another ship while underway. Ocean refueling requires two ships to steer to within 50 feet of each other, sometimes in heavy swells, which increases the chances of collision, damage and crew injuries. My father served on this ship just after World War 2, and was his second ship to be assigned to. The first was the USS Ericsson, a destroyer during WW2.
