r10_focs.jpg A view of the rebuilt foc'sle after the collision with SS Yarmouth County.  As a result of the accident, MICMAC's broken keel couldn't support the weight of the 4.7 inch gun mountings so lighter armament was substituted temporarily. The keel was not replaced until she received the DDE upgrade and was the only Tribal that did not go to Korea. (Photo via Walter Emery)
