Original 1947 AP Wirephoto showing the funeral ship Honda Knot in San Francisco Bay carrying the bodies of 3,028 World War II dead. The caption states that President Truman's seven-foot wreath, containing leaves representing all sections of the nation, was placed aboard the ship after it entered San Francisco Bay. Caption is printed directly on the photo. AP stamp on the back. Tape is present on the corners, with typical newsroom/archive wear. Measures approximately 6¼x9 inches. Came from the archive of a Pittsburgh area newspaper.
