Viking, Ferry

Image shows the "Viking", a ferry at pier. Cranes are visible on a wharf in the background. Sailboats sail in the harbor. From attached note: "Quonset Naval Air Station, R.I. -- Quonset Naval Air Station hosts one of southern New England's largest and best carnivals each year for the benefit of Navy Relief. Tens of thousands of Rhode Islanders join with the civilians and naval personnel at Quonset and the Davisville Construction battalion to make this a success. There are many outstanding exhibits including a score or more of various types of aircraft in use by the United States. Some of the features also include thrilling flying performances by the Blue Angels or other equivalent units from the armed forces. It is an ideal family carnival."
