I recently received a scan from the album of William Kelly. Bill served in the 304th Port Company and was friends with my grandfather. His daughter was nice enough to share this photo of the SS Charles Morgan sinking off of Utah Beach. The supply ship was bombed by the Germans on June 10, 1944. The back of the photo says that it was taken from the deck of the SS Clara Barton. My site has four posts about the attack.
