Interiors of A.M.S. #113 (minesweeper) built at Tacoma Boat Building. Chief Petty Officers' stateroom. The officers' quarters were more spacious than the crew quarters and were designed to hold a smaller number of personnel. The 113 was the first of the 144 ft. minesweepers to be delivered after outfitting at the Naval Station. It was delivered to the French Navy, under the mutual aid program. (TNT 10/25/1953, pg. B-3)
