    Description

    Measures approx. 5.25" x 3.25"
    An original lot of 8 photographs from USS Barker in the 1920's, during the Russian War Era. See scans for more of a description of each photograph.
    They came from a USS Barker military Navy album that I got at an estate sale. The album was full of
    Military
    photographs from the Navy USS Barker and where they traveled when the destroyer ship was first launched.
    In 1920, the USS Barker sailed to the Middle East to join Division 35, US Naval Detachment, Turkish Waters. She  served for several months with the American Relief of Armenia and visited several ports in Turkey and the Middle East. Late
    in 1921
    the
    Barker
    left the Middle East and sailed east through the Suez Canal to join the Asiatic Fleet.  She spent the next four years splitting her time between the Philippines and Chinese waters. In January 1925 she helped transport a force of Marines to Shanghai, where they landed on 22 January 1925, to protect US interests (along with the Borie
    DD-215
    and Whipple DD-217
    . She returned to the United States in May 1925.
