A Feisty Crew

I believe these pictures were also taken in Charleston, South Carolina, around November, 1945, just before the Bache was mothballed, but none of them have labels. They are also from a different developer/camera/film (?) than the first batch.

Duty crew, after the liberty party has left the ship?

Here's the ship's "scoreboard"!
"1 Battleship, 1 Cruiser, 1 Destroyer,
7 Jap planes, 15 Invasions, 43 Bombardments"

A little grabassing . . er, that is, rough-housing.
