Reid Purge Over: Navy Yard Transfer of Destroyer
On a Bath Iron Works launch, the Reid left the wharf bound for Boston and was turned over to the Charlestown Navy Yard commandant by President Hyde. The small craft completed a six hour run with two boilers active, manned by Works crew who returned from Boston Thursday morning.
