-
A group of six photographs showing a baseball game being played in Honolulu, Hawaii, 1922, between U.S. Navy teams from the U.S.S. Burns and the U.S.S. Stribling, which were stationed at Pearl Harbor. The images have the credit of Tai Sing Loo, a well-known Chinese-American photographer based in Hawaii, who served as one of the official Navy photographers from 1919 to 1949. There are two group photographs of team members wearing "Burns" uniforms, action scenes, sailors cheering in the bleachers, and an overview of the newly-constructed field titled "Pearl Harbor Baseball Field."
