Three Light Cruisers approaching off the port bow.
All hands on deck and prepare to be boarded.

So I suspect that Coleman is not the community's only inker.

Nothing identifiable in this picture remains today, aside from West Main Street itself. There wasn't much of West Main Street in Norfolk then, or now. Main Street becomes East Main Street when it reaches Granby in the next block or so, and behind Vachon was the end of West Main Street. Now, West Main Street leads to the Nauticus museum and entertainment complex and the pier where the U.S.S. Wisconsin is permanently docked.

The only building that remains is the tall light gray one all the way down at the far right, past the tops of the parked cars. Everything else is long gone.

looks just like The Kingfish!

I'd bet more than one sailor on leave made a face plant on that sidewalk.
