These are Lipan ship photos compiled from everybody's photos.  No crew pictures (except for those who happen to be in the photo).  Just photos of Lipan and various areas of the ship chronologically through the ages from all angles.

	1943 photo from shipmates Lawrence Fitzwater and Fred Kimball.
	Lipan (ATF-85) moored outboard of the decommissioned Barry (APD-23) at Kerama Rhetto, circa late-May early-June 1945. Off Barry's port side is LST-53 and LSM-83. Barry was used as a decoy ship to lure suicide planes into burned out ships. Lipan's job was to tow her.   Submitted by Ken Roberts

	Lipan in the early 1950's.  Note that the larger hull numbers had not been instituted yet.  I'm guessing Dog Easy Docks?  Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Lipan is a little out of "trim" in this early 50's photo.  The bow is much lower than typical and the stern is sticking up out of the water.   When I was a BM and we wanted to paint underneath the counter,  we'd ask our good buddy snipe types to do this for us so that we could get a good paintjob.  Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Lipan looking real good in Apra Harbor Guam as the crew assembles for Captain's Inspection.  Submitted by Dick Watson.

	Clipping of the local Honolulu newspaper article describing "radioactive Lipan" entering drydock in Pearl harbor after her participation in the Atomic tests in Eniwetok.    Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Nice series of photos showing Lipan in the shipyards after it had been contaminated by radiation during the Atomic Tests at  Eniwetok in the South Pacific.  Dick reports that Lipan got a larger dose than the other ships present because they steamed close to ground zero after the blast with scientists aboard to take soundings.  Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Another shot of Lipan in drydock after being radiated.  Note that the 3 gun is not in place on the gunmount.    The local ":yardbird" workers were concerned about the radiation levels aboard Lipan and readings were taken.  Dick says, "Published articles in the Honolulu newspaper said radioactivity was 1.5 m/r. When we were taking readings at Eniwetok, we were getting readings of 12 to 15 m/r."     Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Shot of the starboard side in drydock.  Dick says, "The highest readings on the ship were from the evaporator, of course.  While still at Eniwetok, we washed, scrubbed and repainted most of the ship.  We cleaned out all fresh water and salt water systems as best we could with acid."  Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Looking down on the ship in drydock at the bridge and the 01 (boatdeck) level.  Note the ship's boat is not in place.  Dick says, "The hot spots were the hull (which we'd sandblast and paint), all sea water piping and the evaporator.  All were removed to the repair base and acid‑cleaned to get out all salt and residuals. They declared us “safe” before we were allowed to leave Eniwetok."  Submitted by Dick Watson.
	One more shot of Lipan in dry dock.  Dick's diary entry states: "11/16/52 — The A‑bomb test was next, and we were eight miles away from it.  This bomb was as different as night and day.  It was dropped from an airplane and detonated about 1,500 feet above an island."  Submitted by Dick Watson.
	Lipan's butt in dry dock.  Submitted by Dick Watson.

	Lipan in Midway.  President Nixon wanted to have talks with South Vietnam's Premier Thieu and chose Midway as the site.  A huge communications ship would have to be on scene during the visit and we escorted two YTB harbor tugs all the way from Pearl Harbor just to help it into the harbor.  Circa 1968.   Contributed by Rich Tetrault

	Lipan in Midway.  Nixon wanted to talk to Thieu, Vietnam's Premier, and chose Midway as the place.  That means they needed huge communication vessels and that meant they needed harbor tugs to assist them.  We escorted these two YTB's all the way from Pearl Harbor.  Like a mother duck and her two ducklings.   Submitted by Ben Siebels
	Lipan in the Marine Railway at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard.  The railway hauls the entire ship and the surrounding scaffolding up onto land.  At the same time the movie "Tora Tora Tora" was being filmed there and during one eye-blinking scene (if you have the movie and really look hard) you can see Lipan sitting there in all her glory in the Railway.   Submitted by Ben Siebels
