This photo is of the United States Army Transportation Corp Tug "Sgt. Fred N Coleman," aka LT 156. She is wearing her post WWII colors which were,  during WWII, all dark gray. I'm doing research for a book being written on the United States Army Transportation Corp. I understand that during WWII the USAT beached a Miki class tug on Attu. We have heard rumors that the hull is still there. What we are looking for is a photograph of the hull to confirm the story. The hull is made of wood and is 120 feet long. Can you suggest some one or some place that my have a picture of this?
