One sepia-toned photograph of the completed cargo ship, LAKE PACHUTA (Hull #130), as it leaves the Saginaw Ship Building Company yard in Bay City, Michigan. The photo shows a starboard side view of the ship which is underway in fair weather on the Saginaw River. Dazzle painting has been used on the hull for camouflage. Handwritten text in the lower right corner reads "Lake Pachuta, Saginaw Ship Bldg. Co., 8/28/18, E.F.C. [Emergency Fleet Corporation] No. 409, Yard No. 130, Bowers Photo."
