USS Golden City (AP-169) In San Francisco Bay at the conclusion of a Magic Carpet voyage between September 1945 and June 1946. Note the crowds of homeward-bound servicemen on deck. The tops of the kingposts on the forward end of the superstructure do not rise as high above the bridge as on her sister ships. The ship retains her armament, making the most likely date of this photo September 1945. Photo No. NH 98725 Source: U.S. Naval History and Heritage Command |

USS La Salle (AP-102) Probably photographed in San Francisco Bay between September 1945 and June 1946 while making Magic Carpet voyages. This was the only ship of the class with a pole instead of a lattice radar mast forward of the stack. She appears to have lost her armament, making 1946 a more likely date for the photograph.
