Courtesy of Bob Thurman Courtesy of Bill Mackey Most of the time this event is only recorded of the Battleships and Cruisers.  Destroyers are NEVER given this chance to show their 'stuff' !  I was aboard the day this picture was taken and was standing on the bridge behind the middle (non-flashless powder) fire ring.
