The USS Doyle C. Barnes (DE-353) was Christened and launched 4 March 1944 by Consolidated Steel Corporation, Ltd., Orange, Texas. She was sponsored by Mrs. D. C. Barnes, widow of Ensign Barnes.8 The photos below were sent to me by Holly Harland, granddaughter of Ensign and Mrs. Barnes. I doubt there are many of these photos still in existance. Thank you, Holly, for sharing these rare photos! Click on a photo for a larger view and please be patient. |
