Sailors and officers assemble for a Medal of Honor ceremony

Beneath the overhang of a grey structure and before the flank of a ship and a pale industrial building, a long formation of sailors in dark jumpers and white caps stands at attention; in the foreground officers in dark uniforms and caps with white covers stand with their backs half turned. The source describes the cruiser San Francisco returning through the Golden Gate from the battle off the Solomons, and Admiral Ernest J. King presenting the Medal of Honor to a 31-year-old officer of the ship.
