What ship?

Nah its the french navies lollipop frigate:icon_lol:. Although the sailor looks to be N.American from the uniform.
 
how bout this one? the gigantic '2' will probably give it away...
i took this photo while on vacation last month.
 
Very strange photo RedRiver...you even have a "Tomthumb" figure on the bow, plus the odd old paint work on the ship..

Any more?

yep you can see where they painted over another figure like it a few feet above.

i don't know whats up with the white sheets over those areas of the stern...i took those photos the last day we were there (Mobile, Ala.). the first day when i saw it the sheets weren't there:isadizzy:
 
Garden nome,:isadizzy: that looks like a Pelican

hmmm..i don't know..there were pelicans around but they were mostly brown pelicans (state bird of La. btw)...

they are obviously some kind of bird tho....i looked through several other photos...
 
some photos i found of Independence on sea trials...she's capable of 40+ knots supposedly...
 
:icon_lol:My giuess is it's the bow of a sunken destroyer sticking up out of the water. WWII or shortly there after time frame.
