A black and white photograph showing the USS Slater, a destroyer escort ship, in action during World War II. The ship is positioned in the foreground with waves and a misty horizon in the background. The vessel's deck is crowded with sailors and equipment, giving an idea of the busy activity on board. A searchlight or radar antenna can be seen on top of the ship's superstructure, while the stern is visible at the bottom of the frame, showing off the ship's propellers and rudder.
