Description

An original photograph from USS Barker in the 1920's, during the Russian War Era. They came from a USS Barker military Navy album that I got at an estate sale. The album was full of
Military
photographs from the Navy USS Barker and where they traveled when the destroyer ship was first launched.
In 1920, the USS Barker sailed to the Middle East to join Div. 35, US Naval Detachment, Turkish waters. She served several months with the American Relief of Armenia and visited several ports in Turkey and the Middle East. In late 1921 the Barker left the Middle East and sailed east through the Suez Canal to join the Asiatic Fleet. She spent the next four years splitting her time between the Philippines and Chinese waters. In Jan. 1925 she helped transport a force of Marines to Shanghai where they landed on Jan. 22, 1925 to protect US interests. She returned to the US in May 1925.
