USS Gemini (AP-75)

Photographed by the Army Signal Corps in October 1942, probably at Boston, Mass., soon after completing her troopship conversion.
Except for her high bridge and gun positions, her appearance and rig remain very similar to her original configuration as a small World War I-built Great Lakes cargo ship.
