	49k	This close-up of USS Eugene A. Greene (DD 711) shows the typical bridge of a FRAM-I destroyer, considerably larger than the original one and fully enclosed, for all-weather operations. Also visible are the port triple mount of Mk.32 torpedo tubes (on the 01 level) and the dish of the Mk.25 radar for her Mk.37 gun director (atop the bridge). This is possibly one of the last photographs of Eugene A. Greene as an active U.S. warship, as it was taken (at Barcelona, Spain) in mid-1972, in the closing days of her final deployment and a little over two months before her transfer to the Spanish Navy. Ship alongside is USS Barney (DDG 6).		Fabio Peña
