Anthony Drongowski is standing at far right with bottle in hand. To his immediate right (also standing) is Mr. Stark (Covington, KY); Mr. William Stiller is in front of my dad (Anthony Droongowski) and is the sailor who identified these other personnel. Next to Mr. Stiller (front row) is Mr. Lucas from Ohio. Mr. Stiller informs me they called him Ears. In the middle, front row is Mr. Mack (Chicago, IL, the 2nd person to Mr. Stillers right). Above Mr. Mack, standing, is Mr. Bonnum (California). At the far left of the picture front row with white sailor cap is Mr. Harry Zeller.
