Design for Memorializing the Port Chicago 50 on Yerba Buena Island (Part 2 of 3) 

I wonder if this exhibit would be a good place to point out that the USS Baltimore (CA-68), President Franklin Roosevelt's flagship for the July 1944 cruise to the Honolulu Conference, was anchored at the Mare Island Navy Shipyard, along with the other ships in the COMINCH fleet, from July 6th to July 17th, departing within hours of the Port Chicago explosion.
