...another update.
This time 3 images showing the construction of the 6 H-Class submarine originally built for Tsarist Russia but not shipped.
They had been built in Canada to get around neutrality constraints before the US got into WW I.
The 6 were shipped to Bremerton Shipyard and re-assembled there.
