USS Oregon Arrives

Above: USS Oregon making a port of call to the city of San Francisco, California. The ship would make several visits to the city where she was built. The city always came out in force to greet the warship. Although the ship was named after the State of Oregon, the people of San Francisco always had a special bond with the ship.
