I've seen numerous photos of the USS Despatch PY-8 and before it was the Despatch it was the USS Vixen SP-68 (commissioned on 10 Aug. 1917). It was only the Vixen for 11 days before the name change.
My grandfather served aboard the Despatch during WW1 in the Pacific before he went to the USS Rhode Island BB (Battleship) operating in the Atlantic. So much for all that... I've studied my photos, and it's my opinion this is not the USS Despatch. Note the difference in spelling...... The actual WW1 ship is the Despatch not the Dispatch. Thanks...

My mother was admitted upon opening of the hospital and later moved to a housing building on the property where she could come and go but slept there. Yes, bowling lanes, billiards, canteen, it was a very nice place and was exclusive.

There is another morgue located on the main floor around the back of the building.... I've personally been in there.

Black is normally used for frost or similar gels. The same color style mags are used in followspots today.

I have a hard time finding anything good about graffiti. Especially in these old buildings that are so full of history. Just my opinion..don't mean to offend anyone!
