Blood Is Thicker Than Water - Part 5 photos

Captions read: Sugar is taken out of freight car and placed in warehouse. This is a very important part of ship's stores because sailors like cake and pastry, lavishly sweeten their inmumerable daily cups of coffee. ;) and also, Delicate gyrocompasses, which keep ships on true courses, are ranged in another supply depot. Each one is worth about $20,000. Yard stores more than a million dollar's worth. Life Magazine, Feb. 23, 1942
