Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Two U.S. Navy tenders moored side by side in the lagoon of Diego Garcia. After a 60-day deployment, submarine tender USS Dixon (AS-37) turned over the job of Indian Ocean fleet repairs to destroyer tender USS Samuel Gompers (AD-37). The two Seventh Fleet vessels not only had the same hull number, but also had 12 decks apiece, beams of 26 m, and only 30 cm of difference between their lengths.
